39 Steps. Overrated?

63.177.64.153

From the beginning, where a knife is planted in the lady's back but the sleeping Rob't. Donat is NOT attacked, it is hard to suspend belief (quite different from suspending thought...).
I found myself thinking throughout most of the film that he should have taken the farmer's wife...she certainly was more appealing than the cold-fish blonde.
It was an earlier version of "The Fugitive," but the antagonist was curiously undeveloped, i.e. you never got to fear or hate him.
Entertaining? Yes, but hardly worthy of all the praise.
