Saw “North by Northwest” in the theater as a boy when it first came out, great movie, and “The Birds” too a few years later, very scary.
We watched the birds as kids and it was terrifying. Years later we took a family trip to Bodega Bay to see movie history stuff, but most of the scenes from the movie were shot from temporary props.
Saw North by Northwest many years ago. Entertaining and suspenseful, but thought the crop duster crashing into the stopped fuel truck was, as Jed Clampett would say: “pathetic, jeeesst pathetic”. It’s like the writer and/or the director didn’t have good idea about how to end that scene.
