North by Northwest – Alfred Hitchcock's North by Northwest

"One of the most entertaining of Hitchcock's American thrillers." – Pauline Kael, 5001 Nights at the Movies

Cary Grant reunites with director Alfred Hitchcock for the fourth and final time in this masterpiece of the spy film genre, ranked among the 100 best American films by the American Film Institute. With an all-new digital transfer and remixed Dolby Digital Stereo sound, this film plunges you into a pulse-pounding adventure!

Roger Thornhill, a New York advertising executive, is mistaken for a secret agent. Spied on by James Mason, accused of murder, hunted, and even attacked by a plane in an iconic scene in the middle of a field, he must flee all the way to the carved faces of Mount Rushmore to survive.
