When a retired sea captain, out doing a little rabbit hunting, discovers Harry's lifeless body in the hilltops of small-town Vermont, he erroneously believes that he is responsible for Harry's untimely demise. So he decides to bury the corpse to cover his tracks. But Harry just won't stay in the ground. Soon the dead man--through no fault of his own--has set off a series of comic misunderstandings, as the town spinster and Harry's wife also blame themselves for his death.

One hour would have been enough. Then nothing could have stopped me awarding a full five stars to this cynical Hitchcock movie. But after the initial barrage of entertaining, keen-edged dialogs (the scene on the veranda with Sam, Jennifer and her crazy son is so ingeniously written that it can’t be described in words), the humor drops off considerably. It is replaced by a bizarre, but unfortunately already hackneyed Hitch movie about a body that keeps on moving about. Over and over. A huge shame that the Master didn’t sow more seeds of black humor here. What resulted from that would certainly have certainly done no harm to his filmography. The Trouble with Harry is cynical... proof of that. P.S.: Herrmann’s “jocular" musical theme is reason alone to watch Harry.

Roughly half of this film’s runtime is packed with scenes with intelligent and subtle black humour of the kind that we won’t find anywhere today. It’s beautiful. But the other half is filled with scenes that are as deaf as a tree stump. As a whole, it is an enjoyable film to relax with, in poetic colours and with a distinctive directorial touch, but it won’t remain in your memory for long.
