Do you have a hard time sleeping but don't want the side effects from sleeping pills? Don't worry. Just watch North by Northwest, the ultimate cure for insomnia!

Re-watched it after a long time. Holds better than most or many James Bond films. Style and suspense serve as an example for other filmmakers. However, the problem with this film is severe lack of realism - anybody remotely intelligent would or should admit that. I would't mind if it's some lesser Schwarzenegger film for example, but we are talking here about highly acclaimed film - a ''true Hollywood classic''.
But then again, this is more like an ego-trip for Cary Grant overall.
Very ending is interesting though - abrupt and ambiguous. spoiler

An excellent film that holds its credibility, even with that very cheeky final shot

Very sharp, funny script. Really enjoyed the dialogue! "I have two ex-wives and several bartenders that are dependent on me..."

Could see some twists coming but who is aligned with who changes in surprisings ways.

There's probably an essay somewhere on Cary Grant's character's relationship to women and his mother. Will Google it later.

Better than Vertigo and Rear Window, not as good as Psycho.

Great film, but the last minute made for a truly laughable ending.

Great suspense, humorous moments, a nice bit of love, Grant's usual good performance and a well thought out story. What an amazing movie, though slightly overrated.

Clearly I didn't get it. Was OK, but not even in the top 250 movies I have ever seen. Call me too modernist...

The Godfather and 2001 appears in more lists, but they appear only in 6 TOP LISTS.

This one is in 8 f*cking lists. It must be good.
