Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Alica Huberman's father is tried and imprisoned at the beginning of the film for treason. He later died. How did it happen?

Answer: He took a cyanide pill.

Despite marrying an American and settling in Florida, Mr. Huberman still sympathized with the Nazi party in Germany. Alicia's self-destructive behavior (drinking, sleeping around, partying) is tied into her conflict with her father's political ideas.

2. Alica takes Devlin for a drive the first night they meet. She is drunk and speeding as fast as she can. She thinks it's foggy outside, but what is actually the problem?

Answer: Her hair is in her eyes.

Ever debonair, Cary Grant plays it cool in the car, with only his left hand hovering below the wheel in case he needs to grab it as they hurtle along at 65 mph. He is so suave that Alicia tells him she's going to "make it 80 and wipe that grin off your face."

Answer: Chicken.

The newly smitten Alicia wants Devlin all to herself, and so doesn't want to go out for dinner. Alicia says of the chicken, "I hope it isn't done to much. It caught fire once." However, they never actually eat, because by the time the food is ready their relationship has changed drastically.

4. What is Alicia's mission for the American Government?

Answer: She is to seduce Alex Sebastian.

Alex Sebastian, an old friend of Alicia's father, was in love with her once. The government knows he is up to something in Rio, and so they think they can use Alicia to get close to him. Sebastian does, in fact, marry Alicia, but that was not part of the mission.

Answer: His car is driven off the road.

This mistake is important, because it gives Alicia her first clue into what the Germans are planning; and that it has something to do with the wine.

6. Alex's mother approves of Alicia as his wife.

Answer: False

Alex's mother, Anna Sebastian, is very controlling of her son, and doesn't want him to marry Alicia. Alicia's role as wife, while not being the "woman of the house," reminds me a great deal of the second Mrs. Dewinter's position in Hitchcock's "Rebecca".

7. What is in the wine bottles?

Answer: Uranium.

According to www.imdb.com, Hitchcock said he was under surveillance by the FBI for three months because the film dealt with uranium. It probably wasn't a good idea for Devlin to scoop it up with his fingers after he broke a wine bottle.

8. How does Alex Sebastian uncover Alicia's deception?

Answer: The reappearance of one of his keys.

Alicia needs to see what is in the wine bottles, so she steals the key to the cellar off of his key ring. Sebastian notices that it is gone, and then that it has reappeared in the morning.

9. Alex Sebastian and his mother need to get rid of Alicia. How do they try to do it?

Answer: They put poison in her tea.

It is important to the Sebastians that Alicia's death look like an accident. They cannot afford for Alex's friends to know that she is a government agent, because they would kill Alex for making such a stupid mistake.

10. How does Devlin finally rescue Alicia?

Answer: He simply walks her out the door.

The climax of the movie is short on action and long on tension. Devlin merely has to get Alex in a situation where stopping Devlin and Alicia would give away Alicia's secret to Alex's friends, and Alex is powerless to stop them.
