North by Northwest

from We Love the Love Hosted by We Love the Love

We're racing away from murder accusations and towards age-gap romance as we look at Alfred Hitchcock's 1959 classic North by Northwest! Join in as we discuss the relationship between stars Cary Grant and Eva Marie Saint, the iconic cropduster scene, the movie's frank sexuality, and its connection to a World War II British plot. Plus: Who would be the funniest president to be on Mount Rushmore? What happened to Roger Thornhill's (Grant's) previous two marriages? Does this movie make any sense whatsoever? And, most importantly, is Roger still wanted for murder when the movie ends? Make sure to rate, review, and subscribe! Next week: Rear Window (1954) ---------------------------------------------------- Key sources and links for this episode: Which Lie Did I Tell? More Adventures in the Screen Trade by William Goldman (2000) "The Making of Mount Rushmore" (Smithsonian Magazine) "Cary Grant and Randolph Scott's Hollywood Story" (Vanity Fair)
