North By Northwest Review
The movie North by Northwest is a very traditional action suspense movie. It is filled with murder, mystery and edge of your seat thrill. The film poseses a certain "I've been framed" feel to it. The costumes of the movie are civilized. Nothing really special about them but they work well. It is mostly suit and ties but that is the type of attire that would most fit that time period and social status.
The main character was played also as extreamly intelligent which I though was a good decision for the director. The hotels and city life were also beutiful and well lit. The sets for the movie were elegant, and beautiful. The desert scene with the plane was my favorite, and the train scene was also well setted. I have heard that it is a classic and many people have seen it. Nothing of the dirty city or bad visuals. It is the main reason for watching the movie, and the characters and fear are also highly regarded. The two main characters were very well played and casted. I can see why because of the good acting and suspense. Characterization was well, but could probably be better. The criminals could have been more fearful and dangerous looking. I also noticed that there were also a lot of extras and police in the movie. All of the criminals are also well dressed, which I thought gave the extra fear.
