Description
Cary Grant teams with director
Alfred Hitchcock for the fourth and final time in this benchmark espionage journey judged one of the American Film Institute's Top-100 American Films. Grant plays a Madison Avenue advertising executive who becomes mistaken for a government agent by a team of spies led by
James Mason. He unwillingly becomes involved in a series of misadventures and is pursued across the States by both the spies and the government whilst being helped by a beautiful secret agent (
Eva Marie Saint). With new digital transfer and Dolby digital sound, this now has everything possible for a great movie: outstanding acting, stunning cinematography, fantastic stunts (the air-duster scene, and the Mount Rushmore finale), a brilliant score by Bernard Herrmann, and the perfect mixture of action, humour, and a dash of romance.
