Savor one of Hollywood’s most enjoyable thrillers ever in this State-of-the-Art 4K Restoration: its renewed picture vitality will leave you just as breathless as the chase itself.
Presented by film restorer Robert Harris and former NY Times film critic Janet Maslin.
Cary Grant is the screen’s supreme man-on-the-run in his fourth and final teaming with Master of Suspense Alfred Hitchcock. He plays a Manhattan adman plunged into a realm of spy (James Mason) and counterspy (Eva Marie Saint) and variously abducted, framed for murder, chased, and in a signature set-piece, crop-dusted. He also hangs for dear life from the facial features of Mount Rushmore’s Presidents.
