Sabotage

A London movie theater owner leads a double life, alternating as a bomber for an eastern terrorist organization, arousing the suspicion of his wife and a local detective. Playfully adapted from the Joseph Conrad novel Secret Agent, Sabotage is an amusing, well-crafted Hitchcock picture made all the more suspenseful through tremendous editing. A concurrent Disney film plays splendidly into the finale.
