North by Northwest & Making of North by NW
Sunday, August 19, 2012 at 5:00 PM
Yavapai College Performing Arts Center - 1100 E. Sheldon St., Prescott
First up: Alfred Hitchcock's classic North by Northwest. A hapless New York advertising executive is mistaken for a government agent by a group of foreign spies, and is pursued across the country while he looks for a way to survive. Starring Cary Grant, Eva Marie Saint and James Mason.
Followed at 7:30 pm by Destination Hitchcock: The Making of North by Northwest. Hosted by Eva Marie Saint, the film's leading lady, this 40-minute documentary of Alfred Hitchcock's only MGM film combines interviews (Martin Landau, Patricia Hitchcock, production designer Robert F. Boyle and screenwriter Ernest Lehman), movie clips and behind the scenes photos to make for a fascinating look at one of the silver screen's glowing gems. For fans of North by Northwest (1959) and Hitchcock aficionados, this is a must see treat. Admission: free
