Cary Grant stars and runs from an airplane in this exiting movie. 1959. Director: Alfred Hitchcock.
Roger O. Thornhill (Cary Grant) is kidnapped by two henchmen and brought to the creepy Phillip Vandamm (James Mason). Vandamm thinks that Roger is a man really named George Kaplan, which is totally wrong.
Vandamm orders to kill Roger after thinking that Roger is lying about being Kaplan. Roger manages to survive and when he's then trying to find out what it was all about, he's dragged into a world with spies, dangerous traitors and charming women such as the mysterious Eve Kendall (Eva Marie Saint).
This movie is a bit overrated. It's really good, but I don't find it so extremely exiting. A bit too slow. I've seen movies from the 30's and so on, but even though I usually not find them slow, I can't help thinking that this is a bit slow. Sad but true.
Cary Grant is way too old for Eva Marie Saint. It's almost disgusting. An old man with a much younger woman. It's her choice, but still, disgusting. That's not good for the grade.
The best scene in this movie is the chase on Mount Rushmore. Even if they didn't really shoot it there, it's still cool. Thatis what makes some movies more memorable then others. Cool scenes. Scenes that you'll remember.
