Having looked at Little Charlie it becomes obvious that her idealism about her uncle starts to crumble which leads to new behaviors of both Charlies. This essay argues that, in Hitchcock’s Shadow of a doubt, a s Little Charlie’s suspicions about her uncle increase, Uncle Charlie becomes more and more aggressive towards her in order to hide his male insecurity, which ends in a kind of suicide. His niece Charlotte, or better known as Little Charlie, nicknamed after her uncle, is very happy about her uncle’s attendance because she expects his appearance will add new excitement to her dull, predictable life, what he then does but not in the way in which she has wished. Charles Oakley, or Uncle Charlie, visits his sister and her family in the small village of Santa Rosa, California.
