"North by Northwest" and "The Ate Er"

 


Probably my favorite Hitchcock movie. I remember seeing it on the big screen at the Fox Theatre. In the South, we say the ( rhymes with fee-like you have a lisp may be more appropriate ) ate er for theatre. Along with fixing and shawl is. Wasn't until I was much older that I started using the more prissy and refined word theatre.

Anyway, Cary Grant is excellent in this movie. And he and Eva Marie Saint dangling off Mt. Rushmore-it don't get no better than that. And the score by Bernard Herrman. Magnifique. Makes you want to say the ate er.
