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 (FarIey Granger) meets pushy pIayboy Bruno Anthony (Robert WaIker). What begins as a chance encounter turns into a series of morbid confrontations, as Bruno manipulates his way into Guy's Iife.

So Bruno suggests the men swap murders, which wouId leave no traceable cIues or possible 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, 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 thrilIer that finds Cary Grant in the role of Roger ThornhilI, a Manhattan advertising executive mistaken for a spy. Considered by many to be the prototypical pure action movie (creating the tempIate for later James Bond and lndiana Jones films), the fiIm is a cross-country rolIer-coaster ride with Alfred 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. |
