Description

65th Anniversary screening!

 

Cary Grant stars as an innocent man mistaken for a spy in one of director Alfred Hitchcock's greatest thrillers. While leaving New York's Plaza Hotel, advertising executive Roger Thornhill (Grant) has the misfortune of standing just as the name "George Kaplan" is paged--starting a lethal case of mistaken identity and a nonstop game of cat and mouse as he is pursued across North America by espionage agents trying to kill him--and by police who suspect him of murder. Along the way he also falls for a mysterious woman (Eva Marie Saint) whose loyalties he begins to doubt.

 

This stylish espionage thriller changed every Hollywood action production in its wake, taking us everywhere from the posh and modernist interiors of New York City and Chicago to a vast, flat, Midwestern cornfield to, finally, the gigantic faces of Mount Rushmore above Rapid City.

 

Shot in "VistaVision", this epic adventure is meant to be seen on the BIG screen!
