Rope

Two young men decide to strangle a friend to death as a philosophical exercise. Are they truly above morality and beyond the reach of man’s petty values? That question will have to wait, as guests are about to arrive for a dinner party, and every guest knows the dead man in the chest. Dinner is served, and the victim is just below their plates. The whole thing could be found out at literally any moment. This adaptation brings new life to Patrick Hamilton’s classic tale of murder and warped psychology.
