John Gielgud, Peter Lorre, Robert Young, and Madeleine Carroll in Secret Agent (1936)

FAQ

Secret Agent

FAQ



    Most copies are poor quality bootlegs. For good quality licensed and restored releases, search for the "Alfred Hitchcock Collectors' Guide".



    Yes, but this isn't it. Sabotage (1936) (1936) has a screenplay based on Joseph Conrad's novel, The Secret Agent. Secret Agent (1936) (1936) has a screenplay based on W. Somerset Maugham's novel, Ashenden. The stories of these two Hitchcock films are unrelated.

    Incidentally, Sabotage has nothing to do with Hitchcock's 1942 film, Saboteur (1942). The latter has an original screenplay.



    Most copies are poor quality bootlegs. Juno and the Paycock, like all of Hitchcock's British films, is copyrighted worldwide. For more information, search for "Alfred Hitchcock: Dial C for Copyright".
