Mistaken for another man, suave Madison Avenue advertising executive Roger O. Thornhill (Cary Grant) suddenly finds himself embroiled in a foreign espionage plot. Often seen as a precursor to James Bond with its thrilling plot twists and witty dialogue, North by Northwest remains an exhilarating spectacle on the big screen. This new 4k restoration is re-released as part of the UK-wide BFI Thriller season.
