I think I first saw it in my teens as well - it’s one of those that sticks with you forever. First time I ever saw Mr. Lorre perform was probably in 20,000 Leagues.

I got the 4K Hitchcock set which contains this masterpiece today and watched it this evening. What a remarkable job that has been done on picture and sound! I loved every frame! Finally, one of my favorite Hitchcocks can stand tall with its siblings! I'm so grateful I lived long enough to see this new restoration! A big and sincere thank you!

Does the Perspecta track register as 5.1 for everyone?

It appears to play as 3.0 but my player and receiver both list it as 5.1.

Just wanna make sure this happens for everyone and it's not some weird quirk of my system!

Yes, it’s a 3.0 track encoded within a 5.1 container.

The track should be denoted as 5.1. The info on one’s receiver should show L/C/R, ie 3.0.
