About Rich and Strange
After receiving an advance inheritance, a bored London couple set off on a world cruise hoping to rejuvenate their marriage and escape their dull routine. But newfound wealth and freedom only expose deeper cracks in their relationship, as each becomes infatuated with someone else. Their journey through exotic ports and mounting disillusionment ultimately brings them face to face with the fragility—and resilience—of love.
Directed by Alfred Hitchcock, Rich and Strange leans on a strong ensemble — Henry Kendall, Joan Barry, Percy Marmont — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1931.
