North By Northwest (courtesy of MGM)

You gotta love a good Hitchcock thriller, especially if its among one of the greatest thrillers of all time.

Cary Grant stars as an advertising executive mistaken for a spy, and after being discredited as a drunk and wrongfully accused for murder by his assailants, begins to investigate a mysterious organization’s plot to steal government secrets.

Culturally, we’re most familiar with the scene of Grant being chased around by a crop duster in a field, or Grant and co-star Eva Marie Saint being chased around by thugs on Mount Rushmore. But its pitch perfect pacing and intriguing development make the whole two hour-plus film a gem.

Screenwriter Ernest Lehman said of North that he wanted to write the Hitchcock picture to “end all other Hitchcock pictures,” and, well, decide whether he accomplished that for yourself.
