Full Plot Details

In London, wealthy Margot Mary Wendice had a brief love affair with the American writer Mark Halliday while her husband and professional tennis player Tony Wendice was on a tennis tour. Tony quits playing to dedicate to his wife and finds a regular job. She decides to give him a second chance for their marriage. When Mark arrives from America to visit the couple, Margot tells him that she had destroyed all his letters but one that was stolen. Subsequently she was blackmailed, but she had never retrieved the stolen letter. Tony arrives home, claims that he needs to work and asks Margot to go with Mark to the theater. Meanwhile Tony calls Captain Lesgate (aka Charles Alexander Swann who studied with him at college) and blackmails him to murder his wife, so that he can inherit her fortune. But there is no perfect crime, and things do not work as planned.

Movie Reviews

Filmcritic.com - 10/10 by David BezansonCritics seem to prefer the more theatrical, psychological melodramas to the brainy whodunits. But pay no attention - this film is definitely a classic
Variety - 9/10 by Variety StaffDial M remains more of a filmed play than a motion picture, unfortunately revealed as a conversation piece about murder which talks up much more suspense than it actually delivers.
The New York Times - 9/10 by Bosley CrowtherThe thrills come in following a succession of dawnings in people's minds.But Mr. Hitchcock has presented this mental material on the screen with remarkable visual definition of developing intrigue and mood.
Village Voice - 9/10 by J. HobermanWas by far the most visually compelling of studio stereoscopic movies.
Creative Loafing - 9/10 by Matt BrunsonDial M for Murder is often dismissed as lesser Hitchcock, yet its intricate plot and sterling performances thrill me every time I watch it.
EmanuelLevy.Com - 9/10 by Emanuel LevyThis second-tier Hitchcock is best known for Grace Kelly's star turn and sleek production values, including use of 3D.
Total Film - 8/10 by Emma DibdinA tightly wound psychological parlour game, expanded only slightly from its claustrophobic stage roots.
culturevulture.net - 8/10 by Ben StephensA rare and accomplished example of the work of Hitchcock the Minimalist.
Cinemaphile.org - 8/10 by David KeyesThe movie is worth seeing even now, if for no other aim than to show a man ambitiously experimenting with the devious facets that would inspire greater films.
Antagony & Ecstasy - 8/10 by Tim BraytonAn exercise made by an enormously talented constructor of thrillers in the most fertile period of his career.
