#2 – The Master of the MacGuffin Alfred Hitchcock – Filmographies Ranked
I am very familiar with Hitchcock's post silent era films having seen 14 or so already, but Champagne is the first of his I have seen from that silent era. I do have to say that my concern going into this film was, I love his work because of his camerawork but also his expert dialogue, so I didn't know how I would feel without the ladder. Maybe this film was not the proper intro into that era because my concern ended up driving my opinion of the film. I think this just felt flat and was bland, sometimes silent films do not hold up and Champagne is one of those in my opnion.
48.8/100
