North by Northwest

Join us for a special screening of Alfred Hitchcock’s 1959 masterpiece North by Northwest—a wrong-man thriller that sends Madison Avenue ad man Roger Thornhill (Cary Grant) fleeing across the country after being mistaken for a government agent, all while a mysterious woman (Eva Marie Saint) and a ruthless spy (James Mason) complicate his escape. From the crop-duster chase to the climactic showdown on Mount Rushmore, this is Hitchcock at his most stylish and suspenseful—the film that helped define the modern action-thriller.

“North by Northwest is the Alfred Hitchcock mixture – suspense, intrigue, comedy, humor. Seldom has the concoction been served up so delectably.” — Variety

“North by Northwest has something for everyone. Mystery. Romance. Suspense.” — The Movie Buff
