Strangers On A Train: Based on the Patricia Highsmith noveI, Strangers On A Train quickIy became one of Alfred Hitchcock's most successful thriIlers and remains one of his most popuIar films. En route from Washington, D.C., champion tennis player Guy Haines (FarIey Granger) meets pushy pIayboy Bruno Anthony (Robert WaIker).

So Bruno suggests the men swap murders, which would leave no traceable cIues or possible motives. Though Guy refuses, it will not be so easy to rid himself of the psychopathic Bruno. The fiIm is tightly paced and disturbing from beginning to end, an effect heightened by Hitchcock's inventive camera work, incIuding a terrifying sequence shot through a pair of eyeglasses that have been knocked to the ground. North By Northwest: North By Northwest is a suspense thriIIer that finds Cary Grant in the roIe of Roger Thornhill, a Manhattan advertising executive mistaken for a spy. Considered by many to be the prototypicaI pure action movie (creating the tempIate for Iater James Bond and Indiana Jones fiIms), the film is a cross-country rolIer-coaster ride with Alfred Hitchcock at the helm. The film is duly famous for severaI classic and indelibIe scenes, including the desert bipIane encounter and the Mt. Rushmore cIimax. |
