Hitchcock Thriller North by Northwest Returns to the Big Screen on 4/5

Fathom Events, Turner Classic Movies and Warner Bros. Entertainment are bringing North by Northwest to select cinemas nationwide for a special event, which also includes an introduction from a TCM host. The Ridgefield Playhouse and Craig's Fine Jewelry Live in HD Series will bring North by Northwest back to the big screen on Wednesday, April 5 at 7 p.m. Cary Grant stars as an innocent man mistaken for a spy in one of director Alfred Hitchcock's greatest thrillers. While leaving New York's Plaza Hotel, advertising executive Roger Thornhill (Grant) has the misfortune of standing just as the name "George Kaplan" is paged, starting a lethal case of mistaken identity and a nonstop game of cat and mouse as he is pursued across North America by espionage agents trying to kill him--and by police who suspect him of murder. The classic film stars Cary Grant, Eva Marie Saint, James Mason, Martin Landau.
