Coby + Hitchcock --- Round 1!
I like Rear Window, Vertigo will get a lot of support, but shouldn't miss earlier Strangers on a Train for one of the best movie villains ever or Rope, for its innovative production and suspense.
@@flarrfan Can't wait for the Rear Window reaction. It's my favorite Hitchcock film, though they're all worth watching. He wasn't known as the Master of Suspense for nothing.
Few will agree but most haven't seen them all:
Hitchcock's best movie is a silent film called: "The Lodger"
Hitchcock's best b&w talkie is: "Number 17"
Hitchcock's best color film is: "Rope"
DO NOT WATCH THESE FIRST
@@ZeroOskul Ive seen them. All three are good but I wouldn't call them the best. Here's one that few will agree on...I dont love Rear Window as much as most. I know many of todays current films, like Disturbia, Woman in the Window, and many others, have copied it. But it's one I revisit the least.
There were two movies made about Hitchcock. THE GIRL features Toby Jones as Hitch and concentrates on his obsession with Tippi Hedren. Shades of VERTIGO! And there's the award-winning HITCHCOCK with Anthony Hopkins and Helen Mirren about the making of PSYCHO. Scarlet Johansson plays Janet Leigh and the score is by Danny Elfman. Worth seeing, for 2 different takes on the man.
Eva Marie Saint is still with us. She's going to be 100 this year.
So many people miss the part where Roger Thornhill, in the bar, is mistaken for Kaplan by the two bad guys.
Eva Marie Saint is so good in this. And looks like she was still working up to 2021 doing voice acting. Last thing I remember seeing her in was Superman Returns as Martha Kent.
Always liked her in “On the Waterfront” with Marlon Brando. She won for best supporting actor.
'She's a Buick' (Eva Marie Saint) Not many will know the reference for that statement. 🤔
@@nightwood3738 And her off-the-cuff comment before her acceptance speech is my all-time favorite! (Look it up!)
Coby if you like the film today . Imagine how much you would have enjoyed it when it was released 😊
Fun reaction to a very entertaining movie. As you are watching Hitchcock films you might consider watching "Charade," from 1963 I believe. Not a Hitchcock film but has been described as the best film Hitchcock never did. Stars Cary Grant, Audrey Hepburn, Walter Mathau, James Coburn and George Kennedy. Suspenseful and fun.
One of the most common themes in many Hitchcock films was 'the wrong man' theme. He even made a 1956 film, The Wrong Man, based on a true story. The theme of an innocent/wrongly accused man goes back to Hitchcock's own childhood when he was 5 years old after Hitch did something slightly naughty and his father decided to play a joke on him by giving him a written note and telling him to go to the police station and give the note to an officer there. The note asked the officer to place the young Hitch in a cell, tell him "this is what we do to naughty boys" and then let him out after 5 minutes. Some of 'the wrong man' theme Hitchcock films are: The Lodger (1927), The 39 Steps (1935), Suspicion (1941), I Confess (1953), Dial M for Murder (1954), To Catch a Thief (1955), Frenzy (1972).
Great reaction to a classic movie. "Martin Landau!" I'm always surprised and pleased when a young reactor recognizes and old actor who I wouldn't think they would know. Now I'm curious what you've seen him in. Thornhill's lawyer was played by Edward Platt. He also played the Chief on the TV show Get Smart. I was going to point out Hitchcock's cameo, but you beat me to it. He makes an appearance in most of his movies. Eva Marie Saint was 35 when this movie was released.
To Catch a Thief (1955) and The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956) are good Hitchcock films to check out
Other great Cary Grant films are Arsenic and Old Lace (1944) and Bringing up Baby (1938), the precursor to all modern romcoms.
As a 70s Kid Martin Landau will always be Commander Koenig, "Space 1999". I'm sure if you were a 60s Kid He would be the master of disguise form "Mission Impossible". Big career.
I’m amazed! This was the first reaction I’ve seen where Martin Landau was recognized. 😂 That got my Sub.
And she spotted Hitch! 😮
@@reesebn38 Great in both roles. 👍🏼
The same year, Ed Platt and Ned Glass (the ticket booth guy) were together (really together, partners in the plot, not just two actors in the same film) in The Rebel Set, an MST3k fave! It's like Rosenkrantz and Guildenstern, minor actors in one film become stars in another (altho lesser) film.
There was something about Grant. Whether it was a comedy or a thriller, he is impossible not to watch when he’s on screen.
Fun and entertaining reactions from Coby, to this superb Hitchcock thriller.
I especially loved that Coby spotted the equally superb actor Martin Landau, in one of his great film roles as Leonard.
Martin Landau and his real life wife Barbara Bain starred together in the original Mission Impossible tv show and then briefly moved to England to star in the excellent sci-fi tv show Space 1999.
You're right, Eve Marie Saint was 35 when this film was released.
Technically she was 34 years old when the film was released on 1st July 1959 - her birthday is 4th July.
@@hadz8671 Technically she was within three days of starting her 36th year on July 1 1959.
Finally, someone recognized Martin Landau! :) And you almost recognized the Chief :)
Three from the black and white era:
The Lady Vanishes
The 39 Steps
Spellbound
Rear Window, Shadow of a Doubt, and Strangers on a Train, are 3 Hitchcock films not be missed!
You just named my three favorites, bar none. I want to party with you, bro! Absolutely Rear Window, Shadow of a Doubt, and Strangers on a Train. Strangers on a Train, jeez..... love that movie.
The other absolutely can’t miss performance of Eva Marie Saint is her breakout role in “On the Waterfront”, for which she won the Oscar. Since we lost Olivia de Havilland, she is the oldest living Oscar winner at 99. She has only done a few things in last decade, but didn’t fully retire until 2021.
Really dug your reaction. Like all great directors, Hitchcock never lost the most important element: tell a good story. His brilliance was telling a story that kept you on the edge of your seat for the entire film.
There are many things to love about Coby and her reactions, not the least of such is she not only recognizes actors like Martin Landau, but she gets giddy at seeing them!
If you liked this one you should check out "Charade" with Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn. The whole film is full of wonderful witty dialoge like the scene in this film with Grant and Eva Marie Saint on the train.
Also known as: the best Hitchcock movie, he did not direct!
What a terrific reaction. You will love Notorious and Rear Window.
Notorious !
Yes my 2 favorites!
The mixup in his identity happened at the beginning when he raised his hand to call for a messenger-type employee to come over so he could send a telegram to his other- at the SAME time that another messenger person was walking thru the lobby calling for “George Kaplan” (in order to keep up the appearance that Kaplan was there) and the 2 thugs thought Roger must be Kaplan. Sending telegrams from hotel lobbies/bars/restaurants etc. was more common at the time (like sending a text today) and hotels had more staff that were available to do jobs like that.
And "Suspicion"!
@@MBillCylle we'll be doing that of course, trying to get 4 hitchcock reactions for end of May / June
This is my 8 year old son favourite Hitchcock film he even wrote to Eva Marie saint and got an autograph photo
I'm so glad you're exposing your kid is such a great Cinema. Today's movies are great but the oldies need consideration.
@@herbertkeithmiller if you want your kid to appreciate old movies you need to expose them to these films before they can even talk
Great reaction!! You might check out Eva Marie Saint in On the Waterfront (1954). She won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her work in that film.
She was also very good in "Exodus'!
“Pay the $2” was a saying of the times, meaning “Just give up”. The actual fine would have been much more.
Pay the Two Dollars is a vaudeville sketch in which a man is subject to increasingly draconian and unnecessary legal jeopardy because of his lawyer's unwillingness to pay a two-dollar fine.
'Pay the $2' actually came from an ancient vaudeville routine that would have been familiar to audiences at the time. A man drops a piece of paper on the sidewalk and refuses to pick it up and gets a summons. His wife says 'Pay the $2', the fine for littering. He refuses. He's going to fight it in court. He goes to court and insults the judge and ends up in jail, gets in a fight with another inmate--inevitably, he ends up on death row, awaiting execution. Every step of the way, his wife keeps telling him, "Just pay the $2." So that's where it came from.
what the saying "just pay the 2 dollars" means is its cheaper and easier to just pay a small fine than fighting an injustice. lawyers are expensive and legal proceedings are long and expensive. just pay the fine and forget it. personally i both agree and disagree with this saying. it depends on many factors.
The reason Cary Grant moves so gracefully is he was an acrobat in vaudeville when he was younger. Moves like a cat (burgler).
It's such a breath of fresh air to come across a reaction channel that isn't Marvel, Star Wars, Harry Potter, etc. Cary Grant's a true legend. He was mostly known for romantic, screwball comedies, but he could do it all. He made several films with Hitchcock. Hitchcock said that he was the only actor that he ever enjoyed working with.
I mean, with Hitch being a Catholic and "Archie Leach" growing up in poverty, they were both outsiders in their own ways within a British context. So it makes sense.
And the droll humor too...
Not sure if you caught it at the beginning. Roger raised his hand to summon a bellhop in order to get him to send a telegram to his mother (strange a world where that was easier than trying to make a phone call in a world basically without answer machines). At the same moment, another bellhop is walking around announcing there was a phone call for the other guy. The two bad guys mistakenly thought Roger was answering the summon for Kaplan.
That actually took me years to figure out. 😄
Good on you Coby! "OMG! That's Martin Landau!"
I cannot believe she recognized Martin Landau, that was priceless, that's got to be the only reactor to ever notice that.....or even know he is! GREAT to see Cobi back, she is a truly fantastic reactor. Those Scorsese reactions were uniformly outstanding; I'm five minutes into this one and I'm already commenting. (All the reactors on your channels are terrific, don't get me wrong, ; but when a reactor exclaims in glee "Omg, that's Martin Landau!", that doesn't happen everyday! (....and now she just recognized the guy from "Get Smart"! Jeez! This isn't even one of my favorite Hitchcock movies at all, I skip most reactions to it; happy I didn't this time! Very satisfied subscriber!!!!
Rear Window & Dial M for Murder are 2 must watch Hitchcock Movies
Those two, this one and The Trouble with Harry are on my yearly movie watch list.
Dial M for Murder is vastly underappreciated. It's a thinking person's movie, with a lot of twists and turns. In my top 5 of Alfred Hitchcock movies.
hitchcock made many wonderful films. he's called "the master of suspense." and his skill is amply displayed in films no reactors react to. like 1) "suspicion" (1941) also starring cary grant,
2) "the man who knew too much" (1956) starring jimmy stewart (he made 4 films with hitchcock) and is the only hitchcock remake,
3) "strangers on a train" (1951),
4) "rebecca" (1940) the only hitchcock film to win the best picture oscar but hitchcock, himself, lost the director oscar (hitchcock NEVER won an oscar),
5) "the wrong man" (1956) the only hitchcock film to star henry fonda,
6) "shadow of a doubt" (1943),
7) "spellbound" (1945) with a dream sequence designed by salvador dali
8) and you can go way back to 1938 with his excellent "the lady vanishes" hitchcock's last british film. and this is just a partial list of hitchcock's finest. so many great hitchcock films - so little time.
The man who knew to much.
The actress playing Cary Grant's mother was only about 7 years older.
Oh my Gosh, must be the youngest Mother ever. Ah just saw, it's only a Movie!
Next: Cary Grant + Grace Kelly in "To catch a thief"
Hell Ya!
That wasn't a Hitchcock film, it was a Stanley Donnen film.
@@JesseOaks-ef9xn Hitchcock is in fact doing a cameo in the movie. When Cary Grant evades French police in the beginning of the movie, Hitchcock is seen seated inside a bus, right next to Cary Grant!
Woops, I got confused, it was Cherade. My bad.
@@Thomgxx100
Very good movie, but not quite as good as NBN
Favorite line: “Then again she might NOT.” CHARADE is one of my favorite deja vu films because it features more than half a dozen echoes of this film.
"Charade" has been called the best non-Hitchcock, Hitchcock movie ever made.
NBN is better than Charade, although it is good...
I liked the final shot - he pulls her up into the bed and then the shot of the long train plunging headlong into the tunnel. Hitch had quite a sense of humor.
One of those times when the Hays Code worked in favor of a movie (even though Hitch trolled that system like crazy).
Cary Grants attorney in the courtroom played “Chief” on the tv show Maxwell Smart. Additionally Grant was asked to play James Bond and told the film makers that he’d already did a spy movie (this one!!). Bonds role went to Connery. Cheers
Cary Grant would have been far to old to play Bond in the 1960s, but he would have been perfect as a younger man!
Also remember in the 50's. Young people even kids dressed like adults so Eve seems older because of the more formal way she is dressed, People also dressed up for travel.....
Eva Marie Saint turns 100 this year
You just watched what many consider the first "James Bond" Film! .... And Grant was offered the Role!
I love Cary Grant, please react to Charade from 1963 with Audrey Hepburn or Bringing up baby from 1938. I love this amazing reactions.
On the train, he was not hiding in the luggage compartment. That was the upper berth which was to fold down to become a bed. However, normally it was locked and required the Pullman porter to open it when he was making the room into a bedroom. Eve mentioned she got the key from the porter to open it and get him in, and get him out again.
On the other hand, every conductor checking tickets on every train would routinely check each bathroom as he went by, not so much as to catch stowaways but simply make sure he got every ticket, even from people actually just innocently using the bathroom.
Don’t forget, Strangers On A Train-1951 sort of has a film Noir feel with lots of symbolism in it.
So great.
And then watch Throw Momma from the Train. 😂
You missed showing that great comedy break scene when at the hospital he climbs into a woman's room in the dark and she switches on the light and cries out "Stop!", but then when she sees him she cries out "Stop!" again, but with a whole different meaning behind it. Just that one scene that woman had but she did it brilliantly.
Eve is played by Eva Marie Saint who won an Academy Award for ON THE WATERFRONT. She also appeared in EXODUS and THE RUSSIANS ARE COMING and is still going strong in her 90s
On the Waterfront had Marlon Brando as star, one of the the best movies of the '50s.
She was really good in playing Superman's mom in Bryan Singers "Superman returns"
@@flarrfan He also won the Oscar.
Eva Marie Saint came in to North by Northwest having already won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for On the Waterfront (1954) with Marlon Brando. It was her film debut and it's one of the greatest and most influential films ever made.
To protect her own identity, Eve had no choice but to send him to that trap in the field. That's why she was happy to see he had survived and why she gave him the big hug.
The train at the end went into a tunnel, after they were married. Hitchcock did that on purpose! I'm really excited to see some more Hitchcock with you! You are on his wavelength!
I overedited. Oops...
Watched this as a teen. Fell in love with Eva Marie Saint, but also with Hitchcock films in general. He is so good with comedy and suspense.
For more Hitchcock, I suggest "Rear Window" and "To Catch a Thief," both with Grace Kelly.
Thank you for noticing "Northwest" at the airport. It's the name of the airline he used. Hence the title: he traveled north by Northwest (airlines).
The movie also moves from NY to Chicago to Rapid City, SD which is also traveling in the direction North by Northwest
The great Eva Marie Saint born in 1924 is still with us. A living Hollywood legend.
wow she'll be 100 in july !
@@criminalcontent Yep. She was also in On The Waterfront with Brando. Legendary. If you guys like Brando react to A Streetcar Named Desire unless you've already seen it. It's a tour de force of two different schools of acting on the same screen.
Eva Marie Saint is still alive, she is 99 years old, she will turn 100 on July 4.
*Again, I'm not sure if it's been explained to you already, but at **2:15**, when the employee is calling for "George Kaplan", at that exact moment, "Thornhill" is snapping his fingers at the employee, to summons him, to send a telegram. So, from the baddies' POV, Thornhill is answering the employee's call for Kaplan, therefore, to them, Thornhill IS Kaplan.*
The train going into the tunnel metaphor makes me laugh every time. Just because I still can't believe Hitchcock was so cheeky.
great reaction! That last shot, sometimes a train going into a tunnel is just a train going into a tunnel 🙂 ...but probably not this time.
Yes! More Hitchcock, please!
In an interview, Hitchcock was asked a question about this movie like, "So, this was just a fun story. No symbolism or anything, right?" He answered, "That's right.....Oh, pardon me, the very last shot."
And the symbolism of the very last shot, the train going into the tunnel...?
@@SiqueScarface Right after newlyweds are preparing to go to bed.
Grants train into Eva saints tunnel ! Get it???
Duh....❤😮
@@Steve-gx9otWhooosh...!
@@SiqueScarface Don't be dense. It's phallic
I think everybody looked older back then. I never would have guessed she was 26. I easily would have believed 36 and a beautiful 36. But then I believe people age better these days. Best line in the movie: Now you listen to me, I'm an advertising man, not a red herring. I've got a job, a secretary, a mother, two ex-wives and several bartenders that depend upon me, and I don't intend to disappoint them all by getting myself "slightly" killed. I only recently saw the entire movie myself a few weeks ago and I'm no spring chicken, then I stumbled on your reaction to it. Glad you enjoyed.
North by Northwest is one of my all time favorite Hitchcock movies, right up there with To Catch a Thief and Rear Window. I enjoyed watching you watch it. You have such a fast mind! I'm impressed with your mental processing speed and ability to accurately predict how the movie will unfold, especially that shading pencil trick! Well done! And yeah, Eva Marie Saint is quite something, isn't she. This was the first movie I ever saw her in and I remember being quite taken and seduced by her unique beauty and charm. I'm a major Cary Grant fan, too, so it's one of my favorite films to watch. I look forward to watching you watch Rear Window staring Jimmy Stewart and Grace Kelly, who is another one of my favorite classic female lead actors--my absolute favorite actually. She is so beautiful, graceful, and divine! I strongly recommend you do a reaction video watching To catch a thief, another Hitchcock film that is a suspense, action thriller, again staring Cary Grant only this time with Grace Kelly. You won't be disappointed.
I was visiting my father in Chicago when I was a kid and we went to a movie rental place. I was really into James Bond movies at the time. The biplane / cornfield scene in North by Northwest was playing on the monitors and I was mesmerized.
Eva Marie Saint was 35 years old in 1959
You know and like Martin Landau-I'm impressed.
At the time of filming, the idea that Cary Grant (really originally Archibald Leach from England - they just released a biopic), the most easily recognized person in the States, could simply go unnoticed anywhere using just sunglasses was hilarious. Hitchcock had as a method the idea of shooting murder scenes as if they were love-making and love scenes as violent struggles. "Shall I murder you?" "Please do." He had a liking for my country, Finland, where he was very much appreciated, and planned to shoot his final film, also an agent film, here in the capital, Helsinki, the main market square and the islands (of which he would have had 180 000 to choose from). But after The Family Plot (wordplay with 'plot' meaning both a burial place and movie plot) he had had it with filming all his life and didn't even watch them that much anymore.
Hi Coby one of the most famous bloopers a kid in the cafeteria puts his fingers in his ears before the shot. Also they weren't allowed to walk on the faces of Mount Rushmore. I see behind the scenes all the time. Good Job. Oh yea'...die in 25 years' 🤣
I was surprised to see that reaction to Martin Landau.
Thornhill's lawyer later played the Chief in TV's Get Smart.
There is no such thing as a bad Hitchcock. I must profess this, Rear Window and The Birds are very close to a tie for my favorite.
Really enjoyed your reaction. The way everything changes as the film goes on. Hitch was brilliant at delivering these things.
As we say in Texas; y'all be safe.
This movie is the prototype/template for the early James Bond films.
"Mother", actress Jessie Royce Landis, was at least a bit older than Cary Grant, but only by a mere 8 years. My personal theory is that she's Roger's stepmom, which might account for the more casual relationship--being a stepmom almost his same age.
Eva Marie Saint was born on July 4, 1924. She was 35 years old when this movie was made.
And now she is 99 years old.
@@vojtanick738 and a half.
The progenitor of all James Bond films. Great movie, great reaction.
"... and their little train fling will continue" you are so story analysis smart that you even presciently predicted the sweet ending
My favorite line of all time.." I've got a job, a secretary, a mother, two ex-wives and several bartenders that depend upon me, and I don't intend to disappoint them all by getting myself "slightly" killed.
'Something wrong with your eyes?' 'Yes, they're sensitive to questions' is another great one. Ernest Lehman was a fucking virtuoso, honestly. This one, Sweet Smell Of Success, and Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf are all amongst my very favourite screenplays
"They're on to you-I'm in your room"
Cobi guessed it! Always one step ahead of the movie, very cool. Yeah, this is not one of Hitchcock's air-tight plots, this is him having fun and making a breezy, entertaining commercial movie after the weird, heady "Vertigo". Not my fave at all, but fun. Round 2 of your Hitchcock series is a different matter; really looking forward to that one! PS: Eva Marie Saint was actually an early method actress; this is her doing a big budget Hollywood thing, with "un-method" artists such as Hitchcock, Grant and James Mason.... but she was known from the Actor's Studio crowd, heavily associated with Brando and "On The Waterfront". (Martin Landau also was from that crowd, friend of James Dean, etc). Definitely a good little actress, as Cobi pointed out!
The CIA professor (Leo Carroll) was Marley’s ghost in A Christmas Carol.
The actor handing out the smokes is Martin Landau known for TV's Mission Impossible.
See Cary Grant in "My Girl Friday". And James Stewart in "Rear Window".
New subscribe. I loved your take on it. This is one of my favorite movies! Cary Grant was talked about as the first James Bond but they decided he was too old for the part. There is a lot of art in this one, too. The United Nations wouldn’t let Hitchcock film inside so he did the interiors on set and had a painting done for the aerial shot. The house above Mt. Rushmore was done the same way. For your next selection, can I suggest Rear Window. James Stewart and Grace Kelly. Also, you could watch To Catch a Thief with Cary Grant and Grace Kelly. There are so many other great Hitchcock films! Enjoy them!
In train-compartments of that design, there are two berths: the upper one swings down from the ceiling, as you saw; and the lower one is made up from seats. It's the same nowadays in the compartments that Amtrak calls "bedrooms".
Eva Marie Saint, a fine actor, she was fantastic with Marlon Brando in On the Waterfront.
I loved how during the crop dusting scene, you kept saying, Wow! I've seen this visual before. And I'm yelling it's right behind You!
a couple of different grant movies are “Mother Goose” and “Bringing Up Baby”. You’d get a kick out of them. Cheers
(35:50) When *Thornhill* states he doesn't like the way *Roosevelt* is looking at him, that's understandable. *Teddy's* not wearing glasses and he's also partially blind in his left eye. So, the eye *Thornhill's* watching is probably working overtime. Along with "The Birds" you might also like "Rear Window". Great reaction.
Great reaction. Glad you enjoyed it. Strangers on a Train is another good Hitchcock.
Your reactions and comments were wonderful it was like seeing the movie thru fresh eyes...you have great taste and in your own way a femme fatale youself ! You have class and beauty naturally! Keep up the good work💓
Good reaction. For Hitchcock you might consider, "Rear Window", "To Catch a Thief" or for a really dark story, "Rope".
That was so much fun watching your reaction to one of my favorite movies. Thank you.
On a personal note, u are so damn entertaining to watch!! Comedy, and smiling and really into scenes, and believable and lots of physical gestures...keep it up!
Like all Hitch's movies, there's deep psychology. Thornhill is mother-dominated, has a string of marriages as a result, his initials are ROT with a nothing in the middle. But he's forced to live out his 'shadow' and become who he really is, Kaplan, and win the girl. Fun but deep. Eva Marie Saint is still in action.
This is one of my all time favorites, can't wait to see your reaction
"Do the pencil!!"
That was a fun reaction! Since you love Eva Marie Saint, watch ON THE WATERFRONT (1954). One of the best dramas ever made and she plays a completely different character than Eve Kendall. Also stars a young, hot Marlon Brando. Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Director. 👍🏼
At the time of this movie, Cary Grant was about 55. His "mother" Jesse Royce Landis was about 63. Eva Marie Saint whose character said she was 26 was about 35.
North by Northwest was the inspiration for James Bond
Train from D.C. to NYC is a pleasant time, imo.
He was trying to get the waiters attention in the restaurant just as the waiter called out the name Caplin to pass a message. That was normal for that time. The line "Pay the two dollars" was a vaudeville punchline to a very long, involved, circuitous story.
Hi Coby. Loved your reaction. Eva Marie Saint plays Ms Kendall. Her other best film is probably On The Waterfront, another great film with Marlon Brando.
Cobi: When you watch many of Hitchcock films of the 1950"s and early 1960"s, the lead actresses such as Grace Kelly, Doris Day, Vera Miles, Kim Novak, Eva Marie Saint, Janet Leigh and Tippi Hedren had one common physical feature. They were all blonde and beautiful. The 1940s movies did not have the blonde requirement.
21:51 she had the key to the upper bed and that's what she gave to the porter.
It's supposed to be locked so no 'extra passengers' sneaks a ride.
25:05 this is one of my favorite scenes in the movies so much tension. Even just talking to the guy waiting for the bus.
26:51 😂😂😂 my thought exactly If you don't shoot him he'll get cancer in 20 years
Eva Marie Saint also acted in the Superman Returns movie. She played Martha Kent.
Yes, you are correct as was I , looked it up and Eva Marie Saint was 35 here, and Grant was 55. Yet the script tried to pass her off for 26 for some reason.
whenever I see this movie, it always makes me want to go watch "To Catch a Thief", too.
Hitchcock made a cameo in every movie that he directed; one movie he had his movie production symbol, which is an outline of his side profile; it's fun to try and find him.😂
Actually, Hitchcock bypassed his usual cameo for his movie The Wrong Man, with Henry Fonda. He does introduce the movie at the beginning and tell us it's based on a real happening.
I recommend that you watch some Cary Grant films, from the '50s and '60s. He has unique talents. I suggest another Hitchcock, TO CATCH A THIEF, with Grace Kelly, and a Stanley Donen, CHARADE with Audrey Hepburn (many mistake this one for a Hitchcock).
Beautiful reaction to a great classic. Thanks.
❤❤❤ This is my favorite Hitchcock. Cary and Hitch three more times. Jimmy Stewart has a triple play as well. My next favorite Hitch movie is FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT. A pre WWII thing. Great job, youngling!
