Alfred Hitchcock and funny glasses: What's not to love? The Charles Theatre 's not-to-be-missed retrospective of Hitchcock's films continues this weekend with 1954's Dial M for Murder, presented in all its original three-dimensional splendor. The film stars Ray Milland as a cad who decides his wife ( Grace Kelly ) needs to be killed and blackmails someone into doing it. But things don't work out as planned. Hitchcock, almost alone among the directors who worked in 3-D during the process' brief Golden Age, tried using it for dramatic effect instead of simply having characters throw things at the audience. Showtime is noon tomorrow, with encores set for 7 p.m. Monday and 9 p.m. Thursday. Tickets are $6 tomorrow, $8 other times. Information: 410-727-3456 or thecharles.com. Read more
