I watched the Cold War flic, North by Northwest, on TV this past Saturday. It is just as spooky now as it was in 1959 when I first saw it. Eva Marie Saint crawling across the face of the monument in high heels with Cary Grant in a suit and dress shoes is a sight that remeains gripping to this day, although implausible.
That movie is my favorite Hitchcock. Just as good today as when it was made. Love this line: “That’s funny, that plane’s dustin’ crops where there ain’t no crops.”
Hitch?
