Strangers on a Train by Jonathan Goldberg
Based on a novel by Patricia Highsmith, Alfred Hitchcock's 1951 thriller Strangers on a Train is about two men who meet on a train: one is a man of high social standing who wishes to divorce his unfaithful wife; the other is an enigmatic bachelor with an overbearing father. Together they enter into a murder plot that binds them to one another, with fatal consequences.This Queer Film Classic delves into the homoerotic energy of the film, especially between the two male characters.
