Cary Grant teams with director Alfred Hitchcock for the fourth and final time in this superlative espionage caper judged one of the American Film Institute's Top-100 Films and spruced up with a new digital transfer and remixed Dolby Digital Stereo. He plays a Manhattan advertising executive plunged into a realm of spy (James Mason) and counterspy (Eva Marie Saint) and variously abducted, framed for murder, chased and in another signature set piece, crop-dusted. He also holds on for dear life from the facial features of the Presidents on Mount Rushmore (backlot sets were used). But don't expect the Master of Suspense to leave star or audience hanging.
Expert Review:
Alfred Hitchcock’s North by Northwest from 1959 is a story about mistaken identity starring Cary Grant and Eve Marie Saint. From the opening credits, to the iconic landscape scenes, to the divine fashions many by Edith Head – this film hits all the best style notes. The palette is muted initially, featuring neutral colors in the landscape and fashion. As Hitchcock heightens the dramatic tension, the colors become more saturated. Especially notable is Saint’s wardrobe – I love Saint’s dresses in saffron and tangerine that pop against her fair complexion. By Sarah Chun of Shop The Shows
