Family Plot
1976
***
Director: Alfred Hitchcock
Cast: Barbara Harris, Bruce Dern, Karen Black, William Devane, Cathleen Nesbitt
Two con artists hope to collect a reward by tracking down an heir to a fortune. However, the man in question turns out to be a professional kidnapper. Hitchcock's final film is an entertaining but unsuccessful mix of thriller and comedy. The farcical car chase scenes seem especially out of place.
