The Perry Mason TV series ('57-'66) has been my "comfort food" television show in recent years; I end up watching it most nights. That's pretty much the set up for every single episode -- along with the hapless defendant exclaiming in public to the soon-to-be-victim, "Given half a chance, I'd kill you !!"
Fortunately, also in almost every episode, the real killer spontaneously jumps up during the trial and shouts out a confession.

Cary Grant, NORTH BY NORTHWEST. I always found his reaction in front of all those witnesses to be just a shade comedic, as if the amateur director was just starting out and didn't know how to handle the tone. Probably one of those Hitchcock wannabes.
Hahaha... , yeah, the director, whatever his name was again, tried to have fun with a lot of Hitchcock staples, like the innocently accused, the cool blonde, etc., there is no denying Hitch's influence. To be fair though, that murder happened so close, no wonder he had the knife in his hand, the body practically fell on him.
