NORTH BY NORTHWEST in 70mm

Special Features: AFI’s 100 Years...100 Movies

Crackling dialogue and one memorable set piece after another — including a murder at the United Nations, the crop-duster attempt on the life of Roger Thornhill (Cary Grant) and the climactic duel on Mount Rushmore — make Alfred Hitchcock’s mistaken-identity thriller a classic that shows no signs of age. The film co-stars James Mason as the unctuous villain, Martin Landau as his creepy henchman and the luminous Eva Marie Saint as a double (maybe triple) agent. Composer Bernard Herrmann took inspiration from the Spanish fandango to craft the overture for the iconic title sequence designed by master Saul Bass. DIR Alfred Hitchcock; SCR Ernest Lehman.
