Stream Under Capricorn Movie Online.
Movie Title: Under Capricorn Under Capricorn is available for streaming or downloading. |
By some thoughtless prejudices “Under Capricorn” is rejected among the people who love violence and action as an “untypical” or “tedious” film of Hitchcock which lacks for suspense and goose-flesh (Hitchcock himself most cynically and deliberately contributed to similar prejudices by his commentaries towards the public and Truffaut). In fact this film is as deep and beautiful as “Vertigo” and as terrifying and psychologically subtil as “Psycho” (these latter films seem to be some kind of a scale in valuation of all other films of Hitchcock). “Under Capricorn” is full of symbols and motives which recur in the earliest and the latest films of Hitchcock. The theme of guilt and past (”Vertigo”), the motive of being addicted to alcohol (TV-film “Poison”) and the motive of the deep love between the married couple … all these themes are combined with each other to a wonderful masterpiece of cinematic and human art. Hitchcock shows Ingrid Bergman and her rival (Margaret Leighton) with a most empathising subtility, there is a strict and mirror-like duality among the characters, everybody seems to be the exact counterpart of the other (something like a photograph and the negative).

The visual quality of the film on this DVD (edited by “Image Entertainment”) is, I have to admit, not as good as the quality of other well known films of Hitchcock which are on DVD (for example the editions by “Warner” or by “Criterion”), but it is at least much better than that terrible French edition by Universal (”Les Amants du Capricorn”) and it is, so far as I can see, the only acceptable and obtainable edition (the German edition by “Kinowelt” is cut and therefore worthless); there is no bonus on the DVD but I am not missing it at all. The menue is very good and shows the chapters in detail. I like this edition.
First off my thanks to Image for bringing this little seen Hitchcock film to DVD. I haven’t seen the DVD yet so I don’t know how the color hues of this late 40’s film have held up. Image was a high quality Laserdisc producer and they have carried on with DVD. They have produced fifty titles for Universal and many more both for other studios and on their own. While light on extras the price, at least lately, is always fair for the product offered. Something I can’t say of every DVD producer out there. “Under Capricorn” was Ingrid Bergman’s last film for Hitchcock. Shot in color it does feature a Hitchcock cameo appearance in a crowd. While it does not have the flash of some of his later films, it has some moody and creepy moments as Bergman is being haunted by a jealous housekeeper. Also notable is Joseph Cotten who gives his usual excellent performance along with a nice turn by Michael Wilding. As the 1993 Sterling Video VHS release has been out of print for some time I can’t wait to see this DVD. Thanks, CAL
