This initial appearance of Herbie gives the audience some clues that Uncle Charlie may be in fact a murderer or has something to hide. During this scene, we find out that Herbie and Joseph are good friends and like to past the time talking about murder mysteries and better yet, how they would murder each other without being caught. Herbie is introduced standing awkwardly near a doorway while the rest of the family is together. This character being the eccentric next-door neighbor and close friend of Joseph Newton, Herbie Hawkins. However, the one aspect of the film that stuck out to me the most was a character that only appeared five times throughout the film.
Hitchcock’s 1943 film, Shadow of a Doubt, features many of his iconic filming techniques such as the use of stairs, close-ups, sharp editing, and theme of doubles.
