Triple bill of classic suspense thrillers from director Alfred
Hitchcock. In 'Dial M for Murder' (1954), adapted from the stage
play by Frederick Knott, former tennis pro Tony Wendice (Ray
Milland) hatches a cunning plot to get rid of his socialite wife,
Margot (Grace Kelly), when he discovers that she has been
unfaithful. Wendice blackmails a corrupt former schoolmate into
murdering her but the fellow bungles the job and Margot, having
killed her would-be assailant in self-defence, then finds herself
under suspicion of premeditated murder. In 'Strangers On a Train'
(1951), based on Patricia Highsmith's novel, tennis star Guy Haines
(Farley Granger) meets Bruno Antony (Robert Walker) by chance in a
train carriage. After some idle chat in which it transpires that
each man has someone in their lives they would like to dispose of,
Bruno proposes that he kills Guy's wife, in return for Guy
murdering Bruno's father. Guy is appalled, but when his wife is
murdered he realises that Bruno is intent on carrying out the
'deal', whether Guy wants to or not. In 'North By Northwest' (1959)
advertising executive Roger Thornhill (Cary Grant) is lunching in a
restaurant with his mother when he mistakenly answers a page for
one George Kaplan. He soon finds himself on the run across the
country, being pursued by enemies of the government who are
convinced that he is a secret agent. He finds a friend in Eve
Kendall (Eve Marie Saint), who helps conceal him during a perilous
train journey, but soon discovers she is not all that she seems...
