Alfred Hitchcock Presents: One More Mile to Go (1957 AH himself)

Begins as a silent film - husband and wife argues, he kills her. Then sets out in the car to dump the body. Until the end of part one there's no dialogue. Then a traffic cop gets involved, and we're suddenly in a trial run for Psycho (with John Russell on camera).

Simple, neat teleplay by James Cavanagh from a story by FJ Smith features the master's trademark view-POV sequences on a lonely highway.
