Nice to see on Blu-Ray but film hasn't actually been restored, as such.
It's very funny ("After all, people don't go around tying up nuns"). To begin with it could be a romantic comedy. Ethel Lina White wrote 'The Wheel Spins' and it's been adapted by Sidney Gilliat, Frank Launder, Alma and Hitch. One of his most entertaining films doesn't actually have much 'Hitchcocky' stuff going on (no bravura camera moves, for example) but is briskly paced and thrilling.
