Movie Review: North By Northwest

Cary Grant stars in variety of famous and classic films, but this might be his most popular. Grant plays a man who is mistaken as another man and forcibly sucked into an odd and confusing situation in which he has no one to trust and no one to talk to. It's hard to talk about this film without giving anything away, but one thing is for sure: there is a chase across Mount Rushmore. Hitchcock had wanted to incorporate that idea into one of his films for quite sometime, but had no opportunity until North By Northwest came along. It's a very entertaining, interesting and suspenseful film to watch even today, nearly half a century after it's release.

4 stars
