Also, what was the one where the gay couple murder someone then host a party with the corpse in a trunk in the middle of the room? That was interesting.
I believe that's "Rope" but it's been a long time since I've seen it.
Yes, that is Rope. The two students are just friends, though; they're not gay.
Rope is one of my favourite Hitch films. I also like Psycho, Marnie, Rebecca, Frenzy, Vertigo, The Birds and The Trouble with Harry.

Yes and no.
The plot of -Rope- was, to some extent, a re-enactment of the Leopold-Loeb murder of Bobby Frank during the 30's. In the real live case there was a homosexual element at work, but it was probably repressed homosexuality. One dominated the other.
