For the fourth consecutive week, we review an early silent film by Alfred Hitchcock. For those out there who are tiring of silent movies, don’t worry there’s only one left after this! The Ring is another love triangle as a sideshow boxer gets a big break, but at the expense of his relationship with his girlfriend.
Details: Produced by John Maxwell for British International Pictures in 1929. Screenplay by Alfred Hitchcock. Starring Carl Brisson Lillian Hall-Davis and Ian Hunter. Cinematography by John J. Cox.
Ranking: 41 out of 52. Ranking movies is a reductive parlor game. It’s also fun. And it’s a good way to frame a discussion. We aggregated over 70 ranking lists from critics, fans, and magazines, and will be going through Alfred Hitchcock’s films from “worst” to “best.” The Ring got 675 ranking points.
