“One of Hitchcock’s most entertaining American thrillers.”
—Pauline Kael

“Hitchcock breezes through a tongue-in-cheek, nightmarish plot with a lightness of touch that’s equalled by a charming performance from Grant.”
Time Out

“A great film, and certainly one of the most entertaining movies ever made, directed by Alfred Hitchcock at his peak.”
Chicago Reader

Hitchcock’s crowning achievement in romantic suspense. Cary Grant plays an ad executive who is mistaken for a government intelligence agent and is pursued by foreign operatives. Can he trust the lovely young woman (Eva Marie Saint) who shelters him? Contains several of Hitchcock’s biggest and most effective set pieces. A true thrill ride.
