Cary Grant in Suspicion

on BBC One London

Continues the BBCtv tribute to Cary Grant who died last year.
Today with Joan Fontaine

Sensitive society girl Lina McLaidlaw marries popular man-about-town Johnnie Aysgarth. At first they are happy but when she discovers he is an embezzler and perhaps a murderer she begins to fear for her own life.
This was the first of four films which Grant made with Hitchcock and it provided him with one of his finest roles. Equally memorable is Joan Fontaine who won an Academy Award for her performance.
