A real gem of the genre

Rating: 10/10 (25 September 2000)

"North by Northwest" is easily Hitchcock's most entertaining movie, although "The Lady Vanishes" comes close. What makes it so enjoyable is that it's filled with incomparably tingling plot twists and humorous touches. Don't think too much about logic, it will spoil the wonderful experience of watching this film. Certainly one of Hitchcock's biggest triumphs.
