Not as perfect as some claim, but it remains marvellous entertainment. It's a terrific idea of course, and John Michael Hayes' script expertly juggles subplots and provides some great dialogue. A wonderful cast - Grace Kelly is beautiful but what's with that massive dress that makes her look like a wedding case. It's also quite bloodthirsty when you think about it - it's about a guy who chops up his wife and buries her around the place. Some things irritate - why doesn't Stewart scream when Kelly is about to be attacked (I had a hard time forgiving him for this) and it feels long in spots.
