Synopsis

North by Northwest is widely regarded as one of the finest movies in the career of its legendary director, Alfred Hitchcock. A classic chase movie, the film stars Cary Grant as a suave executive who is mistaken for a spy and tirelessly pursued by enemy agents. All of Hitchcock's cinematic trademarks are present, and set to a blistering score by Bernard Herrmann, while the story's bold mix of slick comedy and nightmarish thriller works perfectly.

What our educators say

"Some of them saw a clip from Wakolda (The German Doctor) on TV recently and really wanted to watch it. So I thought I’d take a chance, not expecting them to watch the whole film but the majority were absolutely gripped. "
