The Genius Of An Alfred Hitchcock Plot With more twists than a Chubby Checker Dance-A-Thon, the plot of an Alfred Hitchcock thriller keeps you guessing the entire time. When watching a movie such as North By Northwest or To Catch A Thief, it is so tough to know who you should trust, that you cannot help but trust every character, or not trust any character. Once you think that you have figured out the plot and have a good grasp on the film, Hitchcock throws you a nasty curveball that will get your head spinning. When I first viewed North By Northwest, which is part of my personal library, I was not sure if I could trust Cary Grant’s Roger Thornhill. As the movie progressed, Hitchcock revealed clues and counter-clues in a slow steady trickle. My view of Thornhill changed numerous times, but not nearly as many as it did with the character of Eve Kendall, played by the lovely Eva Marie-Saint. Much like Thornhill, I was immediately trusting of Kendall, mainly based on her strikingly good looks; the prototypical platinum blonde of the late 1950’s al-la Marilyn Monroe, Grace Kelly and Kim Novak.
