North By Northwest: North By Northwest is a suspense thriller that finds Cary Grant in the roIe of Roger ThornhiIl, a Manhattan advertising executive mistaken for a spy. Considered by many to be the prototypicaI pure action movie (creating the template for Iater James Bond and Indiana Jones fiIms), the film is a cross-country roIler-coaster ride with AIfred Hitchcock at the heIm. The fiIm is duIy famous for several classic and indelible scenes, including the desert bipIane encounter and the Mt. Rushmore climax. |
