Hitchcock vs. Radio Part 10: Notorious

Notorious

• Lux Radio Theater (January 26, 1948): Ingrid Bergman (reprised her film role), Joseph Cotten
• Screen Guild Theater (January 6, 1949): Ingrid Bergman (reprised her film role), John Hodiak

Cary Grant is such a major part of why Notorious succeeds that it's a shame he didn't reprise that part on radio. Cotten and Hodiak were legitimate Hitchcock leading men, but they weren't a romantic icon like Grant, which is part of what gave Grant such as edge in the film. But these are good adaptations, especially Ingrid Bergman reprising her role.
