I was watching the 1955 Hitchcock film to catch a thief the other night...at least two distinct, bald faced spanking references...both aimed at the derrière of Grace Kelly...first by Cary Grant telling her she needed a good spanking. Another by Jessie Royce Landis (playing Grace’s mother) , saying she should be “spanked with a hairbrush and sent back to school”. Ah, they just don’t make them like they used to..
