Rope

Minor Hitchcock once best known for having been shot as a series of long oners, Rope now fascinates more for gay subtext that is just barely “sub.” John Dall and Farley Granger play adult roommates who murder a pal to see if they can get away with it, then serve a light supper on the chest containing the corpse. Jimmy Stewart plays their former teacher/mentor, who starts to suspect. – Lee Gardner
