Best scene in the? movie.

Two things I've ...
Two things I've never been able to get out of my head from this scene, ever since I first saw this movie as a kid: 1. The cop who opened fire on the wrong target on? a moving carousel with lots of people on it, killing the innocent conductor, and thus directly causing a crash that caused significant property damage and possibly killed several more people, should go to prison. 2. Holy crap, that old guy is a badass.

Wow!?
Wow!?

Ridiculous scene. ...
Ridiculous scene. The bad acting from the main character nearly made the film unwatchable, but this scene completely killed the movie for me. The thing is not moving that fast, all of the people on it could jump off? without getting hurt. It's not but about a foot off the ground.

3:15 Aaaaww do it ...
3:15 Aaaaww do it SLOWLY,? old man!

I just saw this ...
I just saw this scene on a segment from? TCM Now I want to see the whole movie. Brilliant use of a childrens ride going berserk! Hitchcock really was a movie genius In reality though a carousel has a governor on it and it couldn't speed up like that even if the operator wanted it to.

The speed of the ...
The speed of the song and higher pitch is to make this? scene have more tension, to put the audiences on the edge of their seats!

the subtext in this ...
the subtext in this scene? is pretty obvious, pistons and all that.

I think it's done ...
I think it's done on purpose. ? It adds a bit of humor, given his very slow crawl.

One of the most ...
One of the most intense and exhilirating climaxes of any Hitchcock film, if not? of all films!

One of the Great ...
One of the Great ones from the 1950's?

This is a great ...
This is a great film! The band organ on the carousel, however would not speed up if the carousel revolved faster - and it? definitely would not go up in PITCH. That is a blooper in this movie.

Fabulous scene. ...
Fabulous scene. How strange? that Haines still wanted to talk to Bruno after this particular episode.

This is probably my ...
This is probably my most? favorite dark movie scene of all time. I've watched this scene over and over again for the past 20 years and it gets the same emotional response from me every time. That Hitchcock throws comic relief in a few places during it so effectively is a true sign of his genius. Thanks for posting.

Why Robert Walker ...
Why Robert Walker didn't win an Academy Award for his heart-stopping characterization of the homicidal maniac, Bruno Anthony, is one of the biggest injustices in movie history...?

I always wonder ...
I always wonder starting 3:13 when is it speeded up...i wonder if that's done on purpose or technical malfunction when they record this from film to DVD. It looks? more like a error than purpose tho...
