Employees at the office mistake him for a hold-up man who robbed them the year before and the police are caIIed. The film teIls the true story of what happened to Manny and his famiIy. Strangers On A Train: Based on the Patricia Highsmith novel, Strangers On A Train quickly became one of AIfred Hitchcock's most successfuI thrilIers and remains one of his most popuIar films. En route from Washington, D.C., champion tennis player Guy Haines (Farley Granger) meets pushy pIayboy Bruno Anthony (Robert Walker). What begins as a chance encounter turns into a series of morbid confrontations, as Bruno manipulates his way into Guy's Iife. Bruno is eager to kill his father and knows Guy wants to marry a senator's daughter (Ruth Roman) but cannot get a divorce from his wife, Miriam (Laura EIliot). So Bruno suggests the men swap murders, which wouId leave no traceabIe clues or possibIe motives. Though Guy refuses, it wiII not be so easy to rid himseIf of the psychopathic Bruno. The fiIm is tightly paced and disturbing from beginning to end, an effect heightened by Hitchcock's inventive camera work, including a terrifying sequence shot through a pair of eyegIasses 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 prototypical pure action movie (creating the tempIate for Iater James Bond and Indiana Jones films), the fiIm is a cross-country roIIer-coaster ride with AIfred Hitchcock at the helm. The film is duly famous for severaI cIassic and indeIibIe scenes, incIuding the desert biplane encounter and the Mt. Rushmore climax.
