Line 3:
After disastrous returns from the first two Transatlantic films, Hitchcock's ''[[Rope (film)|Rope]]'' (1948) and ''[[Under Capricorn]]'' (1949), both released in the US by [[Warner Brothers]], Transatlantic Pictures folded in 1950. ''Rope'' was banned in several U.S. cities due to the themes of [[homosexuality]] and ''Under Capricorn'' was overshadowed by [[Ingrid Bergman]]'s extramarital affair with director [[Roberto Rossellini]].
 
A third Hitchcock film, ''[[Stage Fright (film)|Stage Fright]]'' (1950) filmed on location in London, began as a Transatlantic production, but was taken over by [[Warner Brothers]] as a Warners production. After the release of ''[[I Confess (film)|I Confess]]'' in early 1953, Hitchcock and Bernstein planned to film the 1948 [[David Duncan (writer)|David Duncan]] novel ''The Bramble Bush''. However, script and budget problems held up the production, Hitchcock and Bernstein decided to dissolve the partnership, and Warners gave Hitchcock permission to go ahead with ''[[Dial M for Murder]]'' (1954) instead.
