North by Northwest

Essential Hitchcock
mitchellyoung - wrote on 02/03/13

North by Northwest is one of the quintessential Hitchcock films. While I enjoy the subtlety of some of the director's later works, North by Northwest blends charming humor, sneaky plot trickery, and some big action setpieces into an entertaining ride that often keeps the audience guessing. Cary Grant and James Mason are a fitting pairing for this creative cat-and-mouse game, which contains some of the most iconic scenes in all of thrillerdom (the cropduster chase and the Mt. Rushmore climax among the most famous.)
