Stage Fright (1950)
Hitchcock considered the film's 'false flashback' sequence to be one of his greatest mistakes, citing that it made audiences feel betrayed. I'm not sure if it's quite as bad as all that but, in hindsight, it does seem to be an underhanded trick. Perhaps I'm more forgiving because the cast here, notably Jane Wyman, Marlene Dietrich and Alastair Sim, are just so damn good. As it is, Stage Fright is a second tier Hitchcock production but only because others like Vertigo and Strangers on a Train set the bar so high.
