Alfred Hitchcock’s LIFEBOAT
with introduction by film historian Philip Harwood

Alfred Hitchcock’s masterpiece of a survival film stars Tallulah Bankhead and William Bendix as passengers on a lifeboat, adrift at sea after their vessel is torpedoed by a Nazi U-boat. As passengers are pulled from the wreckage, they come across a German U-boat crewman, whose motivations maybe be more sinister than they originally appear. While lesser known than many of his other films, Lifeboat is a master stroke of Hitchcockian tension and attention to detail, and is an important forebear to his single-location classics like Dial M for Murder and Rear Window. (1944, 97 mins)
