ROGER THORNHILL'S headlong flight from New York begins when he becomes a victim of mistaken identity by a couple of strong-armed men, acting for an alien agent. He is whisked from a rendezvous in the Plaza Hotel's Oak Room to an estate on Long Island, where he is held prisoner, then forced to drink bourbon until he is drunk.

UiaiUATTtsl MT- 6 By KATE CAMERON Alfred Hitchcock, master of th suspense technique, is back in the groove he created for himself with many top thrillers for the screen before becoming too absorbed in the manner rather than the matter of his presentations. With the introduction of "North by Northwest" on the Music Hall the brilliant director has outdone himself by piling thrill on thrill for the delectation of an enraptured audience. Hitchcock's Technicolor camera keeps a close eye on Cary Grant throughout the film.

Except for the tarnished love story, Hitchcock's chase, through the Flaza and the UN Building to Chicago via New York Central's crack, train, the 20th Century Limited, to the environs of the famous sculptured heads on Mount Rushmore, is a brilliant and glittering piece of cinema en tertainment. THE DIRECTOR HAS kept a taut rein on his players, except during the love scenes, when he let them take their loose course, and has given reasonable excuses for his characters' movements in a deadly game of hare and hounds. Hitchcock produced and direct ed the thrnler for MGM from an original screen play by Ernest Lehman, with a supporting cast headed by Oscar winner Eva Marie Saint, James Mason, Jessie Royce Landis, Leo G. Carroll, Martin Landau, Philip Ober and Josephine Hutchinson, all lending their special talents to the effectiveness of the thriller. With "North by Northwest," Grant has completed four star ring roles for Hitchcock, as he played opposite Grace Kelly in "To Catch A Thief" and had In-grid Bergman and Joan Fontaine as his co-stars in Hitchcock's "Notorious" and "Suspicion." While this is liitchcock first picture for MGM, its executives hope to jjet him for another after he fulfills his committment to Paramount.
