Product Description

Amazon.com essential video
One of Alfred Hitchcock's classics, this romantic thriller features a cast to kill for: Ingrid Bergman, Cary Grant, and Claude Rains. Bergman plays the daughter of a disgraced father who is recruited by American agents to infiltrate a post-World War II spy ring in Brazil. Her control agent is Grant, who treats her with disdain while developing a deep romantic bond with her. Her assignment: to marry the suspected head of the ring (Rains) and get the goods on everyone involved. Danger, deceit, betrayal--and, yes, romance--all come together in a nearly perfect blend as the film builds to a terrific (and surprising) climax. Grant and Bergman rarely have been better. --Marshall Fine

 3.5 stars out of 4 January 3, 2009
The Bottom Line:
Notorious may drag a little before Claude Rains comes on scene, but for the majority of its running length it's a expertly-directed story with solid performances (especially by Rains) and a sublimely clever ending.
Excellent restoration and extra features December 21, 2008

I love this movie and had been looking for the discontinued Criterion DVD to replace my Anchor Bay copy, but was unable to find it. The Anchor Bay DVD was very good, but contained no extras. So when I saw this new MGM remastered disc, loaded with extra features, I immediately bought it.
I'm glad to report that this DVD is an outstanding example of how classic films should be treated. First of all, the video and audio quality are excellent. The video is virtually flawless, with all signs of scratches and dust removed, and no skips or blips. The black and white balance is better than the Anchor Bay version, too, and for a film with several important exterior night scenes, this is important. The Dolby mono sound is much clearer and sounds more open than the Anchor Bay version.
The greatly improved video and audio quality would make this a worthwhile purchase, but MGM adds a comprehensive set of extra features that are among the best I've seen included in any Hitchcock film. There are two commentaries, each with a film professor: the option to turn off the spoken dialogue and hear only the music and sound effects (I'm not sure why you'd want that, but it's there); an excellent 25 minute feature called "The Ultimate Romance: The Making of 'Notorious'"; a 13 minute feature called "Alfred Hitchcock: The Ultimate Spymaster"; a 3 minute highlight clip of the AFI award ceremony honoring Hitchcock, including video of Hitchcock and Ingrid Bergman; an audio-only recording of the 1948 radio play starring Joseph Cotten and Ingrid Bergman; two audio-only interviews, one with Peter Bogdanovich and one with Francois Truffaut; a restoration comparison; the theatrical trailer; and three still galleries.
My one very minor complaint is about the included folder. It actually has interesting information, instead of the usual two-sided poster backed with promos for upcoming releases, if you even get that. However, for some reason, MGM felt it was necessary to use adhesive to glue the corners together, and while it's easy enough to remove it, it leaves two big grease spots on the folder, for no apparent reason.
The film itself is a classic and needs no recommendation, but for anyone who is interested in finding the best available DVD transfer, look no further. This is it, and you can get it for about a third of the cost of the now unavailable Criterion DVD. A definite must-have for any Hitchcock fan!
Untypically Grant December 12, 2008
Cary Grant does a wonderful job in this movie & it is atypical for me. Highly recommend that you view this movie.
Great movie. Bergman at her best. November 28, 2008
Excellent, well-paced and well-acted movie. The two leads work excellently together and the villians are menacing.
