“Hitchcock is such a master of suspense... the audience achieves complete identification with the characters... the thrill of vicarious fear and the shared pleasures of love and passion.” Hollywood Reporter

A New York City advertising executive (Cary Grant) goes on the run with the beautiful Eve Kendall (Eva Marie Saint) after being mistaken for a government agent by a group of foreign spies. (Alfred Hitchcock, 1959, 136 min.)

**Please respect the lawn and your fellow filmgoers: only bring blankets that are permeable (no plastic/nylon/tarps), and chairs that are low-backed and low to the ground. Filmgoers may start setting up at noon on the day of the Courthouse screenings.
