Hitchcock's all-time worst?
4 December 2020
"Juno And The Paycock" is the lowest-rated film or TV episode directed by Alfred Hitchcock on IMDb, and although I have yet to see several of his films, this is probably accurate. However, the 4.8 rating still seems way too generous; the film is absolutely unwatchable - and unlistenable: approximately 80% of the dialogue is indecipherable. The play itself will not mean anything to anyone who is not a) Irish and b) born before 1880, but the moviemaking is deadening as well: there are no traces of Hitchcock's personality whatsoever. Sorry but I've got to give this a 0 out of 4, as I can't think of a single reason for someone to watch it.
