Dial M for Murder is a 1954 thriller film directed by Alfred Hitchcock, originally released in stereoscopic format.

The film was originally shot in stereoscopic format, to counter the nascent popularity of television. The three-dimensional cinema, considered with distrust by the director, had in fact a first and short period of popularity around the mid-50s of the twentieth century, running out within a couple of years. Hitchcock used it subtly, avoiding excessive effects: he merely emphasized the relief with low-angle shots and had purposely built a hole so that the camera was level with the floor.
