Shadow Of A Doubt.
SHADOW OF A DOUBT Is a quietly creepy venture into American menace; Hitchcock's juxtaposition of humor and the macabre is sublime.
NORTH BY NORTHWEST has plenty of plot twists mixed with tongue-in-cheek humor; this film, of course, has the iconic images of a plane chasing Grant through farm fields and Grant and Saint dangling from the faces on Mount Rushmore. The sexual innuendo is very strong. It even has a train going through a tunnel right before Grant and Saint make love ; you can't get more suggestive than that! All film students should study every frame of this.
