Foreign Correspondents: Deeper into Hitchcock

Episode 41: "To Catch a Thief" (1955)

Shot in glorious Technicolor and in panoramic VistaVision, "To Catch a Thief" remains one of Hitchcock's most elegantly crafted cosmopolitan delights. Côte d'Azur gets the full "touristy" treatment in the story of John Robie "The Cat" (Cary Grant): an ex-thief who needs to find a real jewelry thief prowling on the rooftops of Southern France.

Join us as we explore both the film's pleasures and its maddening incongruities.
