Talk:Senate Spy

Similarities to Alfred Hitchcock's Notorious
Has anyone else noticed that this episode shares many plot elements with Notorious, one of Alfred Hitchcock's films starring Cary Grant, Claude Rains and Ingrid Bergman? The ending definately is based on Notorious, and in both, the leading ladies are spying on someone they are pretending to love, while they hold attraction for their "contact" at the same time. Both also have the leading lady poisoned by someone with the enemy, and in both endings the man the leading lady was pretending to be in love with is forced to help the "contact" escape the enemy manor (while the leading lady is in the "contact's" arms) due to possible exposure of incomompetence.

Wikipedia also mentions this comparison in its Notorious article.

Should this be added to the Behind the Scenes section? -- Rouge 2  15:30, October 17, 2009 (UTC)
