I bet my library has it. I like to borrow the old movies and watch them, because I missed them the first time. Because of Chief Justice Roberts I watched "North By Northwest" and "Dr. Zhivago", this fall for the first time.

Watch everything by Hitchcock--he's amazing.

North By Northwest is a classic ~ they voiced over an Eva Marie Saint line when they were in the trains dining car, the original was "I never have sex," or "make love, on an empty stomach" the censors thought that was a little too risque for '59 so they voiced it over with a vanilla phrase.

If you watch her lips closly you can detect it. :)

Now you mention my favorite subject...The classics were THE BEST. Scripts never used foul language: I never curse in my personal life...why would I want to hear it on the screen. They (filmmakers) remind me of adolescents..."oooou, I used a dirty word, he he he." Grow up Hollywood. Learn more words, screenwriters. Hey, directors: don't show so much skin. Leave it to the imagination. Jerks.

LOL.

That reminds me, I must go get "Devil Woman" -- 1976 (a snake-headed woman attacks ......) since I saw Hillary spouting about plantations on the news today.
