Ex-tennis pro Tony Wendice hatches the perfect plan to murder his wife, Margot, and make off with her fortune. Plans take an unexpected turn when she kills her attacker in self-defense and the scheme unravels at the seams. Tony suddenly finds himself at the center of an investigation led by a cunning inspector and of all people, Margot’s lover. Expertly crafted by Frederick Knott, adapted for film by Alfred Hitchcock, and enhanced for the stage by Jeffrey Hatcher, Dial “M” for Murder is a riveting thriller that will keep you spellbound from lights up to the final curtain.
