The classic work of 1959, Xi Fat is really a master!

Still don't understand how he was mistaken for Kaplan?

Also, why would Vandamn want to get rid of him, why would he have to lure him all the way into the wilds of Chicago and use planes to kill people?

Apart from these two doubts, everything else is perfect.

Kidnapping, driving under the influence of alcohol, taking the police for a return visit and discovering that the hotel was not in the order of travel between cities, visiting the hotel, assassinating the United Nations, fleeing to Chicago, having a train encounter, pursuing an airplane and killing him at an auction, changing his mind and letting him go to President Hill. Continue to impersonate an Eve pretending to kill a hospital and escape overnight.

A few highlights:

Aerial view of the United Nations building.

Stop in the hospital! Stop~~

Airplane chase.

The hunt for Mt. Rushmore.

    [Shanghai Film Festival Screening] 4K restored version. To this day, it is still an awesome commercial genre film. Crime, suspense, comedy, love, action...Airplane train President Hill, all kinds of elements. Gary Grant, who turned on the mouth-cannon mode, is full of charm, and his acting is silent. The blonde heroine is also very attractive. The photography and storytelling of Ming Chuying History are well-deserved, and the props and scenery are also very exquisite. The huge screen effect also adds color to the film

    Hitchcock’s classic suspense film is not bad. I watched it as a child, but I don’t have any impression. Revisiting it again, the two episodes are more impressive. The section where the hero and the hero met on the train, and the section where the two later climbed down from the Presidential Hill. Finally, Xi Pang added the hint of the train entering the tunnel at the end, which later became A kind of classic bridge.

  • Phillip Vandamm: Seems to me you fellows could stand a little less training from the F.B.I. and a little more from the Actor's Studio.

  • Bureaucrat: So horribly sad. How is it I feel like laughing?
