North By Northwest (1959)
An advertising man, Roger Thornhill (Cary Grant), lands himself in big trouble when he is mistaken for George Kaplan. On the run from the police and a foreign spy, he meets Eve (Eva Marie Saint), which leads to a bigger problem.
Has there been a more thrilling, suspenseful, comedic, and romantic film ever made beyond Alfred Hitchcock’s cinematic masterpiece ‘North by Northwest’? Filmed ahead of its time in VistaVision widescreen. Last year, a new 70 mm restoration of the film was released, to celebrate its 65th anniversary! I can’t think of a better film to celebrate the launch of our KVA Film Club’s fourth season?!
