Analysis and comic take on the 1946 Spy Thriller Notorious directed by Alfred Hitchcock. Two of Hitchcock's favorite stars play the leads with CIA agent Cary Grant recruiting and subsquently falling in love with Ingrid Bergman the daughter of an American traitor who attempts to redeam her name going undercover by seducing and marrying Claude Raines a Nazi scientist operating in Brazil. Since the plot sounds operatic we have assigned Leitmotifs to main characters and plot situations. Hitchcock's cameo is one of his more amusing so stay vigilant.
