"Silent Witness" is an episode of the TV series Alfred Hitchcock Presents. It marked the television debut of Dolores Hart.[1][2]
Premise
A married teacher murders a student with whom he has been having an affair. The crime is witnessed by a 14 month year old baby.
Reception
According to Filmink "Hart wouldn’t often get the chance to play a character with both agency and sexual desire, and she’s very effective; it makes one wish she’d depicted a few more temptresses in her career, as she gives the part sympathy and dimension."[3]
