www.imdb.com/title/tt0034248/
one of the most powerful Hitchcock scenes.
Lina is convinced that her lovely husband Johnnie is planning to poison her, but still somewhat refuses to believe it.
note the glass of milk is practically glowing - the director used a hidden light inside.
** spoiler down here - read after watching **
this is the most badass killer i can imagine: "good night, Lina", kiss on the lips, stands up and goes out of the room.
also the contrast between her world where he's the cold-blooded murderer and his - normal, regular life with his dear wife feeling not very well from time to time.
