North By Northwest by Alfred Hitchcock
2024 movie #135. An ad executive (Grant) gets mistaken for a government agent and goes on a wild ride to save himself. Considered one of Hitchcock's best and and a great performance by Grant. Maybe the 4th time I've seen this. It is that good of a movie.

North By Northwest (DVD) by Alfred Hitchcock
Acting: 5.0; Theme: 5.0; Content: 4.5; Language: 5.0; Overall: 5.0

A Manhattan executive (Cary Grant) is thrown into a web of intrigue and suspense when he must escape the clutches of superspy (James Mason) and counterspy (Eva Marie Saint) in this exciting Alfred Hitchcock thriller. Highly recommend.

Hello, Dolly! by Gene Kelly
C+ (Okay).

A matchmaker arranges chaos. If there were an edit of this with the musical numbers cut, it would probably be one of my favorite movies. As it is, it's nearly unwatchable.
