The film seems uncomfortable in either the silent or sound camp.

Slight but pleasant film that has some of the Master's later touches but disappoints more than it pleases.

Definitely not one of Hitch's best films, but it is definitely worth a viewing or two.

Not really good, but fascinating departure for Hitchcock
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
A film very worthy of its title.

Combustible Celluloid
... a mature exploration of personal disappointment and longing for a fantasy that doesn't exist and an adult confrontation of wandering affections and romantic betrayal...

And so it is: this early (1932) Hitchcock film shows more signs of the artist to come than any of his other British movies.

Product Description:
A rare light romantic comedy with Hitchcockian touches, RICH AND STRANGE tells the story of a young and bored married couple (Henry Kendall and Joan Barry) who inherit some money and set off on a trip around the world, only to discover--after having their respective affairs--that money can't buy happiness. The film was based on the novel by Dale Collins, but the film has often been interpreted as containing autobiographical elements from Hitchcock's marriage to his frequent collaborator Alma Reville and their honeymoon experiences cruising the Mediterranean.
