Thought I had seen this before, but probably had just seen bits and pieces of it, because I was wrong about who I thought the killer was.

Ronald Colman in The Prisoner of Zenda (John Cromwell, 1937)

Cast: Ronald Colman, Madeleine Carroll, C. Aubrey Smith, Raymond Massey, Mary Astor, David Niven, Douglas Fairbanks Jr. Screenplay: John L. Balderston, Edward E. Rose, Wells Root, Donald Ogden Stewart, based on a novel by Anthony Hope. Cinematography: James Wong Howe. Art direction: Lyle R. Wheeler. Film editing: James E. Newcom. Music: Arnold Newman. 

The identical cousin is a genetic anomaly known only to Anthony Hope and the creators of The Patty Duke Show, but both got a great deal of mileage out of it. Hope's novel about a man who finds himself posing as a Ruritanian king to fend off a threat to the throne was such a hit that it was immediately adapted for the stage, turned into a film in 1913, and even became a Sigmund Romberg operetta. But leave it to David O. Selznick to produce perhaps the best of all adaptations. It was once said of Selznick -- I forget by whom, but it sounds a lot like something Ben Hecht would say -- that to judge from his movies, he had read nothing past the age of 12. Among the novels he made into movies are David Copperfield (George Cukor, 1935), A Tale of Two Cities (Jack Conway, 1935), Little Lord Fauntleroy (John Cromwell, 1936), and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (Norman Taurog, 1938). But it has to be said that each of these adaptations remains probably the best screen version of its source. The 1937 Prisoner of Zenda is so good that when MGM decided to remake it in Technicolor in 1952, producer Pandro S. Berman and director Richard Thorpe not only used the 1937 screenplay by John Balderston and Noel Langley, with Donald Ogden Stewart's punched-up dialogue, but also the score by Alfred Newman, following the earlier version almost shot for shot. The chief virtue of Selznick's production lies in its casting: Ronald Colman is suave and dashing as Rudolf Rassendyll and his royal double, Madeleine Carroll makes a radiant Princess Flavia, and Raymond Massey is a saturnine Black Michael. Mary Astor, C. Aubrey Smith, and David Niven steal scenes right and left. Best of all, though, is Douglas Fairbanks Jr. as Rupert von Hentzau, a grinning scamp of a villain. Fairbanks is so good in the role that we cheer when he escapes at the end. How Selznick got this one past the Production Code, which usually insisted on punishing wrongdoers. is a bit of a mystery, but he may have told the censors that he was planning to film Hope's sequel, Rupert of Hentzau, in which Rupert gets what's coming to him. He never got around to the sequel, of course, being distracted by Gone With the Wind (Victor Fleming, 1939).

Pyroraptor olympius

By Ripley Cook 

Etymology: Fire Thief

First Described By: Allain & Taquet, 2000

Classification: Dinosauromorpha, Dinosauriformes, Dracohors, Dinosauria, Saurischia, Eusaurischia, Theropoda, Neotheropoda, Averostra, Tetanurae, Orionides, Avetheropoda, Coelurosauria, Tyrannoraptora, Maniraptoromorpha, Maniraptoriformes, Maniraptora, Pennaraptora, Paraves, Eumaniraptora, Dromaeosauridae

Status: Extinct

Time and Place: Around 72 million years ago, in the Campanian of the Late Cretaceous 

Pyroraptor is known from the La Boucharde locality in France, the Vitoria and La Posa Formations in Spain, and potential locations in the UK 

Physical Description: Pyroraptor is a poorly known raptor, based on a few fossil scraps found around the late Cretaceous of Europe. Portions of the foot, arms, and some teeth are known from Pyroraptor, none preserved very well. It had the sickle second toe claw of other raptors, and it seems to have been fairly lightweight and small - probably no longer than 1.4 meters, though that is of course an estimate. Other than that, we know very little about its appearance - we don’t even know if it was a specialized sort of raptor like in the Dromaeosaurine, Microraptorine, or other groups - except for that it would have been very fluffy, with wings on its arms and a tail fan on its tail. 

By Conty, CC BY 3.0 

Diet: As a raptor, it is most likely that Pyroraptor fed upon meat, probably small animals such as lizards, mammals, and turtles.

Behavior: Pyroraptor would have been a very active dinosaur, spending most of its time hopping and stalking around the rivers and beaches in its island environment. Like other raptors, it wouldn’t have been a pursuit predator, but rather an ambush one: it would have waited for prey to appear, and then pounced on it, using rapid flaps of its wings to stay balanced on top of the struggling prey. This technique, called raptor prey restraint, is still seen in living raptors today. Pyroraptor would have also been able to run up vertical surfaces, such as trees and cliffs, using flaps of its wings to gain lyft up the surface. Then, it would have been able to catch food on the run! Other than that, Pyroraptor probably wasn’t very social, based on fossil evidence from other raptors - that being said, it would have taken care of its young, and probably stayed in small family groups during this process. 

By The Unknown Horror From the Ocean Depths, CC BY-SA 4.0 

Ecosystem: Pyroraptor lived in the Late Cretaceous of Western Europe, which was a series of islands sitting in a shallow ocean - sort of like the Bahamas today. These ecosystems were easy to travel between, utilizing rafting and other forms of impromptu sea travel, so the animals on them tended to be similar to each other. Pyroraptor itself lived with many turtles, snakes, sharks, and gars; as well as Eusuchians such as Musturzabalsuchus and Acynodon. There was some sort of large Azhdarchid pterosaur, too - currently called Azhdarcho, though that’s a questionable assignment. As for other dinosaurs, there were Abelisaurids there, Titanosaurs like Lirainosaurus, Nodosaurids like Struthiosaurus, the Ornithopod Rhabdodon, and another raptor called Richardoestesia, and the protobird Gargantuavis! 

By José Carlos Cortés 

Other: Pyroraptor was named as such because it was discovered after the occurence of a forest fire. Since so little is known about this dinosaur, there isn’t much more to be said about its phylogenetics or history of discovery! It is rather famous for having been featured in the 2003 documentary Dinosaur Planet, though given its poorly preserved nature, the wisdom in that choice of star is mildly suspect.

Scamming the Elderly - Fraud Hecht Partner

Clients of Hecht Partners LLP, A Potential “Affiliated” #Fightback Foundation Firm, Shut Down By The DOJ For Facilitating Scams

According to United States Department of Justice Press Release: “The U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York entered a consent decree imposing a permanent injunction barring two individuals and two companies that transmitted massive volumes of fraudulent robocalls from conveying any telephone calls into the U.S. telephone system.” The couple subject of the ban are represented by Hecht Partners LLP; the law firm is a spin-off of Pierce Bainbridge. John M. Pierce, the Pierce Bainbridge founder, represents Kyle Rittenhouse in connection with double-murder charges and was integrally involved in the formation of the #FightbackFoundation.

The Foundation is being utilized to collect donations for the Rittenhouse double-murder defense and other causes. “Affiliated” law firms are permitted to benefit from the funds. Hecht Partners would presumably meet that threshold:

all six partners were partners at Pierce Bainbridge;

David L. Hecht, the Hecht Partners boss, has represented in court that he is still “affiliated” with his former firm;

Hecht Partners say it is “successor counsel” to Pierce Bainbridge in a major case; and

Hecht Partners has also stepped into another case in which Pierce Bainbridge was previously involved.

[laurent-bigot]

Les créations d’Hitchcock ont toujours été étroitement liées aux producteurs qui l’ont fait travailler, parfois même très étroitement. C’est particulièrement vrai pour The Paradine case (Le Procès Paradine), qu’Hitchcock réalisa pour David O. Selznick. Bien que surveillé de très près par son producteur, qui garda la main mise sur le film du début à la fin de la production, le réalisateur parvint néanmoins à signer une œuvre qui, indéniablement, porte sa marque. Accusée de meurtre, la belle Mrs Paradine n’a pas de mal à convaincre son avocat de son innocence. Le procès semble gagné d’avance. C’est sans compter avec les sentiments des uns et des autres…

THE PARADINE CASE (Le Procès Paradine) – Alfred Hitchcock (1947) avec Gregory Peck, Ann Todd, Charles Laughton, Charles Coburn, Louis Jourdan et Alida Valli

Au début de l’année 1946, Hitchcock avait fini de travailler avec la R.K.O. : Notorious (Les Enchaînés) était en boîte. Le contrat qui le liait à Selznick, lui, n’était pas expiré. Un dernier film allait les réunir : The Paradine case. L’idée venait du producteur qui souhaitait tirer un film du roman de Robert Hichens sorti en 1933. Qu’en pensait Hitchcock ? Pas grand-chose. Il avait déjà la tête ailleurs. Avec Sydney Bernstein, il était sur le point de créer la Transatlantic Picture, une société de production qui devait lui permettre – enfin ! – de devenir totalement indépendant. Le réalisateur se plia donc aux exigences de son producteur, acceptant des contraintes que, en d’autres circonstances, il aurait probablement refusées.

THE PARADINE CASE (Le Procès Paradine) – Alfred Hitchcock (1947) avec Gregory Peck, Ann Todd, Charles Laughton, Charles Coburn, Louis Jourdan et Alida Valli

La situation du producteur ne facilita pas les choses. Selznick, en ce milieu des années 1940, était en perdition. Comme l’écrivit Spoto. « L’efficacité et le prestige de l’empire Selznick diminuait de jour en jour.» Et c’est d’une manière fébrile qu’il s’engagea, corps et âmes, dans The Paradine case. Il finit même par prendre en charge le scénario, fournissant la version finale de chaque scène quelques jours seulement avant leur tournage. De même, Selznick exigea de garder un contrôle très strict sur le déroulement de la réalisation, depuis le casting jusqu’au montage. Chaque scène devait obtenir son accord avant d’être filmée, et il visionnait les rushes chaque soir.

THE PARADINE CASE (Le Procès Paradine) – Alfred Hitchcock (1947) avec Gregory Peck, Ann Todd, Charles Laughton, Charles Coburn, Louis Jourdan et Alida Valli

Alors ? Alors Hitchcock connaissait son homme. Il travaillait avec Selznick, plus ou moins régulièrement, depuis 1939, date du tournage de Rebecca. Il s’en accommoda, donc. D’autant que Selznick ne voyait pas d’un bon œil l’indépendance prochaine de son réalisateur, à qui il aurait volontiers fait signer un nouveau contrat. Une phrase du producteur résume son état d’esprit à l’époque : « Nous devons voir les choses en face, Hitch nous échappe complètement. »

ON SET – THE PARADINE CASE (Le Procès Paradine) – Alfred Hitchcock (1947)

Péripéties en chaîne

A posteriori, Hitchcock se montra très sévère avec les choix de son producteur ; notamment en matière de distribution : « Je ne pense pas que Gregory Peck puisse représenter un avocat britannique, car un avocat britannique est un homme très éduqué et qui appartient aux classes supérieures. » Plutôt que Peck, Hitchcock aurait préféré Laurence Olivier (le très britannique principal rôle masculin de Rebecca), voire Ronald Coleman. De même, il avait espéré pendant un temps convaincre une grande actrice d’effectuer son retour pour interpréter Mrs Paradine : Greta Garbo. Mais il avait dû y renoncer : Même Ann Todd, finalement, ne lui donna qu’à moitié satisfaction ; il dira d’elle dans ce film: « Elle était trop froide. »

THE PARADINE CASE (Le Procès Paradine) – Alfred Hitchcock (1947) avec Gregory Peck, Ann Todd, Charles Laughton, Charles Coburn, Louis Jourdan et Alida Valli

Cependant, le plus mauvais choix, à son avis, était celui de l’acteur qui incarnait le valet André Latour : « La pire erreur de la distribution était le choix de Louis Jourdan pour le rôle du valet. Dans The Paradine case, l’histoire est celle de la dégradation d’un gentleman avocat qui devient amoureux d’une cliente. Cette cliente est non seulement un assassin mais encore une nymphomane, et la dégradation est à son comble lorsque l’avocat doit confronter devant le tribunal l’héroïne avec un de ses amants qui est un valet. Cet amant, le valet, devait sentir le fumier, vraiment il devait sentir le fumier. » C’est là encore, Selznick qui avait Insisté pour que le valet soit incarné par un beau jeune homme, loin de la virilité bestiale à la façon de L’Amant de Lady Chatterley, dans le célèbre roman de D.H. Lawrence – qui évoque par nombre d’aspects Mrs Paradine. Hitchcock, lui, avait pensé pour ce rôle à Robert Newton. Pourquoi ? Pour ses « mains crochues, comme un diable ! »

THE PARADINE CASE (Le Procès Paradine) – Alfred Hitchcock (1947) avec Gregory Peck, Ann Todd, Charles Laughton, Charles Coburn, Louis Jourdan et Alida Valli

L’écriture du scénario, basé sur le roman d’Hichens connut également de nombreuses péripéties, comme le rappela le réalisateur à François Truffaut : « Robert Hichens a écrit aussi Le jardin d’Allah, Bella donna et beaucoup d’autres romans. C’est un homme qui appartient au début du XXe siècle. Lorsque ce sujet a été choisi, nous avons écrit un traitement, Mrs Hitchcock et moi, afin que Selznick puisse établir un premier devis, ensuite j’ai demandé la collaboration d’un auteur de théâtre écossais, James Bridie, qui avait une très grande réputation en Angleterre. Il avait une soixantaine d’années et il était très indépendant. Selznick l’a fait venir à New York, mais comme personne n’est venu l’attendre sur le terrain d’aviation, il est retourné à Londres par l’avion suivant. Un caractère très indépendant. Alors il a travaillé le script en Angleterre et il nous l’a envoyé. Ce n’était pas une méthode de travail excellente. Ensuite, Selznick a voulu adapter lui-même le scénario. C’était son habitude pendant cette période. Il écrivait des scènes et il les faisait apporter sur le plateau tous les deux jours. » Et de conclure : « C’est une méthode impossible. »

ON SET – THE PARADINE CASE (Le Procès Paradine) – Alfred Hitchcock (1947)

La Hitchcock touch

Heureusement, impossible n’est pas Hitchcock ! Ben Hecht (le scénariste de Spellbound (La Maison du docteur Edwardes) et de Notorious) fut appelé à la rescousse pour sauver le scénario. Il accepta 10.000 dollars pour cela, à condition que son nom n’apparaisse pas au générique… En même temps, Hitchcock s’envolait pour Londres, afin d’effectuer les repérages nécessaires, et notamment prendre les mesures exactes du palais de justice d’Old Bailey qui devait être entièrement reconstruit en studio.

THE PARADINE CASE (Le Procès Paradine) – Alfred Hitchcock (1947) avec Gregory Peck, Ann Todd, Charles Laughton, Charles Coburn, Louis Jourdan et Alida Valli

Le 19 décembre 1946, le tournage débuta. Il se déroula sous la surveillance constante de Selznick jusqu’au 7 mai 1947, date à laquelle il prit fin. Ensuite, le producteur se chargea de monter lui-même The Paradine case. La première officielle devait avoir lieu au Radio City Music Hall de New York. Une semaine avant cette présentation, le jour de la Saint Sylvestre, Selznick fit projeter The Paradine case, en vue de participer à la course aux oscars. Les réactions furent sévères… pour Selznick “Facile et bavard” put-on lire dans la presse. Un seul homme trouvait grâce aux yeux de la critique : Alfred Hitchcock. Un journaliste résuma le sentiment général : « On aurait pu tailler avec une hache de bûcheron dans The Paradine case, mais la touche hitchcockienne est tout de même là. » De fait, malgré les conditions épouvantables de sa réalisation, The Paradine case comporte tous les éléments d’un Hitchcock – ce qui n’est pas peu dire, Donald Spoto, à ce sujet, a raison de rappeler : « Lorsque Hitchcock est moins original il reste tout de même plus intéressant que la plupart des metteurs en scène. » The Paradine case en est la preuve flagrante !

L­a justice en procès

« Pour moi, affirma Hitchcock, l’intérêt du film était de montrer une femme telle que Mrs Paradine, que l’on jette brusquement dans les mains de la police, toutes les formalités auxquelles elle doit se soumettre pour quitter la maison escortée de deux inspecteurs et disant à sa femme de chambre : « Je ne crois pas que le serai de retour pour le dîner » ; ensuite elle passerait la nuit suivante dans une cellule et n’en sortirait plus Jamais. Il y a un écho de cela dans The Wrong Man (Le Faux Coupable). » Le rapprochement avec le film qu’Hitchcock réalisera près de dix ans plus tard est tout à fait pertinent.

THE PARADINE CASE (Le Procès Paradine) – Alfred Hitchcock (1947) avec Gregory Peck, Ann Todd, Charles Laughton, Charles Coburn, Louis Jourdan et Alida Valli

Pourtant, dans The Wrong Man, le réalisateur, qui se basait sur un fait réel, s’en tint à une vision impartiale de la justice – même si l’erreur dont est victime Manny Balestrero ne donne pas une Image réjouissante de l’institution. La liberté que lui donnait la fiction, dans The Paradine case, lui permet d’appréhender la machine judiciaire avec une tout autre verve.

ON SET – THE PARADINE CASE (Le Procès Paradine) – Alfred Hitchcock (1947)

Dans The Paradine case, en effet, c’est l’­institution judiciaire elle-même qui passe en procès, une institution gangrenée par la vénalité de ceux qui la président. Alors qu’un juge est censé représenter la sagesse, l’ordre et la civilisation, Sir Horfield n’est que corruption, bassesse et perversion. Son attitude lors du procès n’est pas dirigée par le sentiment de sa mission de juge, mais bien par le ressentiment – teinté de jalousie – qu’il éprouve à l’égard de Keane. À la base de ce ressentiment : le refus de ses avances par Gay Keane. Dans The Paradine case, les sentiments et les désirs prennent le pas sur la raison.

THE PARADINE CASE (Le Procès Paradine) – Alfred Hitchcock (1947) avec Gregory Peck, Ann Todd, Charles Laughton, Charles Coburn, Louis Jourdan et Alida Valli

Il en est de même pour l’avocat. Keane ne construit sa défense qu’en fonction de ses sentiments pour Mrs Paradine et sa jalousie vis-à-vis de Latour. Plus le procès avance, plus les éléments contredisent sa défense et plus Keane se cabre sur ses positions. L’amour rend aveugle, une fois de plus. Judy et quelques autres ont beau le mettre en garde, Keane réagit avec violence et refuse de voir la vérité, La chute n’en est que plus violente. Au total, c’est bien une image d’une machine judiciaire décadente que nous offre Hitchcock. La vue du Palais de justice délabré qui revient de manière récurrente dans le film, en est un symbole visuel manifeste.

ON SET – THE PARADINE CASE (Le Procès Paradine) – Alfred Hitchcock (1947)

Valse macabre

Dans cet univers perverti, la folie ou le crime semblent contagieux. En effet, comme Mrs Paradine s’est débarrassée de son mari par amour de Latour, Keane va tenter de se débarrasser de Latour par amour pour elle. Mais ces amours n’ont rien d’idyllique. Une odeur de mort règne sur le domaine de Vénus. Les sentiments de Keane pour sa cliente ne peuvent être dissociés de la menace de mort qui pèse sur elle. Avocat brillant, Keane seul pourrait la sauver. Sa volonté de se porter au secours de celle qui l’a séduit se double donc d’une question de vie ou de mort. Quand Keane pense abandonner le procès, il dit à sa femme: « On se fiche pas mal… » Sa voix s’interrompt un moment, avant qu’il finisse sa phrase : « …de ce qu’elle dira ». La mort de Mrs Paradine est toujours là, en filigrane. Dès lors, The Paradine case prend des allures de vaudeville macabre.

THE PARADINE CASE (Le Procès Paradine) – Alfred Hitchcock (1947) avec Gregory Peck, Ann Todd, Charles Laughton, Charles Coburn, Louis Jourdan et Alida Valli

Keane suit le même parcours qu’un autre personnage hitchcockien : Scottie Ferguson dans Vertigo (Sueurs froides). Comme ce dernier Keane tombe amoureux de sa cliente au fur et à mesure qu’il pénètre dans sa vie. Et comme Ferguson, il en oublie son propre rôle. L’avocat fait place à l’amant potentiel. On retrouve ici un thème cher au réalisateur : celui des relations professionnelles qui se transforment en relations sentimentales et au-delà, de la dichotomie entre apparence et réalité. Les apparences sont trompeuses et l’habit ne fait pas le moine semble nous rappeler Hitchcock : les robes de Keane et Horfield n’impliquent pas un comportement raisonnable et irréprochable. Un personnage échappe à cette valse macabre des passions : Judy. Elle est le pendant de la petite Ann Newton dans Shadow of a Doubt (L’Ombre d’un doute), ou de Barbara dans Strangers on a Train (L’Inconnu du Nord-Express). C’est la jeune fille intelligente qui garde son sang-froid quand tout le monde le perd, et qui permet d’apporter un éclairage différent sur le déroulement de l’intrigue. Judy commente la préparation du procès et le procès lui-même avec une grande lucidité, elle apporte une touche d’humanité dans un univers sinistré.

THE PARADINE CASE (Le Procès Paradine) – Alfred Hitchcock (1947) avec Gregory Peck, Ann Todd, Charles Laughton, Charles Coburn, Louis Jourdan et Alida Valli

Cet univers délétère trouve sa cohérence grâce au génie cinématographique d’Hitchcock. Le réalisateur, selon son habitude, introduit plusieurs éléments symboliques qui renforcent la cohésion du récit. Ainsi, l’image du glaive de la justice se retrouve dans un chandelier et un plafonnier, dont les formes font écho à cette première image symbolique. De même, les lunettes du juge et du procureur évoquent l’envers d’une justice ordinaire, c’est-à-dire une justice aux yeux bandés. Enfin, Hitchcock utilise avec un sens de plus en plus aiguisé le jeu d’ombres et de lumières, jeu auquel répond l’opposition du blanc et du noir, avec leurs symboliques respectives.

THE PARADINE CASE (Le Procès Paradine) – Alfred Hitchcock (1947) avec Gregory Peck, Ann Todd, Charles Laughton, Charles Coburn, Louis Jourdan et Alida Valli

Mrs Paradine ne porte pas du noir pour rien, pas plus que Gay Keane n’est vêtue de blanc par hasard. Le salut et l’ultime touche d’optimisme qui sauveront l’avocat et le monde qu’il représente viendront d’ailleurs d’elle. En effet, seule l’émotion qui se lit sur le visage d’Anthony Keane réagissant aux propos de sa femme le sauve. Mrs Paradine n’a pas échappé à la peine de mort, Keane, lui, réussira à éviter sa déchéance.

Hitchcock rêvait-il d’être muscicien ? On peut le croire, à voir la fréquence des apparitions où il porte un instrument. Après une contrebasse de Strangers on a Train et avant le cornet à piston de Vertigo, Hitchcock apparaît ici portant un violoncelle et fumant un gros cigare. THE PARADINE CASE (1947)

L’histoire

Présentations – À Londres, deux policiers se rendent chez Maddalena Paradine qu’ils interrompent alors qu’elle est en train de jouer du piano. Ils lui apprennent qu’elle est accusée du meurtre de son mari, un aveugle. Mrs Paradine est emmenée par les deux policiers et conduite en prison. [voir l’extrait] Elle voit son avocat, Sir Simon Flaquer, qui lui promet un brillant défenseur en la personne de l’avocat Anthony Keane. Plus tard, de retour chez lui, Keane apprend à sa femme qu’il a accepté de prendre en charge l’affaire Paradine.

Dîner chez les Horfield – Sir Simon Flaquer présente Anthony Keane à sa cliente dans le parloir de la prison. Keane confirme son engagement et sa décision de la défendre. Le soir, Keane et sa femme Gay, Flaquer et sa fille Judy vont dîner chez le juge Lord Horfield. Après le repas, ce dernier fait des avances assez grossières à Gay, qu’elle repousse. [voir l’extrait] De retour chez eux, Gay et son mari devisent comme un couple uni de choses et d’autres, d’un voyage d’anniversaire notamment, Toutefois, la jeune femme fait comprendre à Anthony qu’elle a deviné qu’il n’était pas insensible aux charmes de Mrs Paradine.

Plaider non coupable – Discutant de l’affaire Paradine avec Flaquer, Keane se montre exagérément sensible concernant Mrs Paradine. Contre l’avis de Flaquer, il annonce vouloir plaider le suicide de Mr Paradine, ou alors son meurtre par son valet, André Latour. Mais Mrs Paradine refuse qu’on, accuse Latour. De son côté, Sir Simon Flaquer rappelle à Keane qu’il doit avant tout se préparer à réfuter l’accusation de meurtre portée contre Mrs Paradine Apprenant la situation, Judy suppose que Keane est amoureux de sa cliente et jaloux de Latour.

Sentiments – Devant sa femme de plus en plus gênée par les sentiments que son mari éprouve pour sa cliente, Keane annonce qu’il renonce à l’affaire. Soulagée, elle le convainc pourtant de ne rien en faire, Keane part pour la maison de campagne des Paradine afin d’y mener des investigations. [voir l’extrait]

Visite du manoir – Au manoir Keane est accueilli par André Latour, qu’il n’a jamais rencontré, mais qui le reconnaît pourtant immédiatement. La gouvernante lui fait visiter la demeure. Keane s’attarde dans la chambre de Mrs Paradine, et découvre que les appartements de Latour sont tout proches. Keane demande à Latour de lui faire visiter le jardin, mais le valet disparaît mystérieusement.

Latour parle – Le soir à son hôtel, Keane entend frapper aux carreaux. C’est Latour qui vient lui parler. Mystérieux, le valet le met en garde contre Mrs Paradine, qu’il juge mauvaise. Agacé, Keane met fin à la discussion. [voir l’extrait] De retour à Londres, il va directement à la prison demander des explications à sa cliente sur l’attitude de Latour. Elle reste muette. [voir l’extrait]

La plaidoirie de Gay – Gay, la femme de Keane, déjeune avec Judy et lui parle de son mari. Plus tard, chez elle, elle apprend par la presse que Keane est de retour à Londres et qu’il a rendu visite à Mrs Paradine – avant de venir la voir elle.

Les extraits

  Les créations d'Hitchcock ont toujours été étroitement liées aux producteurs qui l'ont fait travailler, parfois même très étroitement. C'est particulièrement vrai pour The Paradine case (Le Procès Paradine), qu'Hitchcock réalisa pour David O. Selznick. Bien que surveillé de très près par son producteur, qui garda la main mise sur le film du début à la fin de la production, le réalisateur parvint néanmoins à signer une œuvre qui, indéniablement, porte sa marque.  Accusée de meurtre, la belle Mrs Paradine n'a pas de mal à convaincre son avocat de son innocence. Le procès semble gagné d'avance. C'est sans compter avec les sentiments des uns et des autres... Les créations d'Hitchcock ont toujours été étroitement liées aux producteurs qui l'ont fait travailler, parfois même très étroitement.
