Rope (1948)

It is a 1948 film in which was created by Alfred Hitchcock, it is essentially based upon the 1929 play in which is the same name, however, created by a different person by Patrick Hamilton and then had been adapted by Hume Cronyn and Arthur Laurents. The premise behind the play was essentially based upon the real life situation of the murder of Bobby Franks, a 15 year old by the people known as Richard Loeb and Nathan Leopold, who were from the University of Chicago in 1924.

It essentially begins with the murder of David Kently by two of his associates Brandon and Phillip, it is all in the movie where suspense is laying around, with what they would've wanted to create, which is the "perfect murder", eventually the more the movie develops, the more that each of the characters try to figure out David's disappearance, and eventually the killers will start to crack and within the plot, one of the people will have to reveal the whole incident and to put the two killers to rest and to arrest.

The premise behind all of the stories from the movie and the play is of the theory of Supermen/Ubermensch, what the premise from the German/Prussian Friderich Nietzsche. What it essentially is, is that the person has this superiority complex and that because they are intelligent and in the higher level of society, he can be able to surpass the law and not get caught by the law, their own delusion of superiority had made them cause these said violence and crimes.

The characters in which are being shown within the set, mainly the two characters Brandon and Phillip, have been portrayed with a homosexual subtext, this is was a very controversial move to do to create it as a subtext within the 1940s, when they had to describe the homosexual context, they had to phrase it as "it", the reason why there was this context was because both the main actors Dall and Granger were both homosexuals in real life. The issue that many towns have had with it was that the minds of Leopold and Loeb was still fresh in their mind, so these towns had banned it independently.
