The Farmer's Wife
Content:
In 1928, Hitchcock directed and wrote "The Farmer's Wife" based on a play by Eden Philpotts. It was about a farmer whose previous wife died and who looks for a new one. He considers various women as possibilities but in the end realises that it is his housekeeper, who is secretly in love with him, who is the right wife for him. The film relies too heavily on dialogue, and the title cards interrupt the action more than they should. Supposedly a comedy, it lost much of its intimacy that it had as a live performance play.
