Movie Night: North By Northwest

Last Remaining Seats is a program run by the LA Conservancy: Watch a classic movie in one of LA's historic movie theatres!

Hitchcock's North By Northwest - announced to be shown at the Orpheum - had been Sold Out for quite a bit. But thanks to Rebecca and Mike we got a chance to get inside the nicely restored movie theatre and to experience a wonderful show.

Special guests of the evening are Eva Marie Saint and Patricia Hitchcock who get interviewed by filmmaker Curtis Hanson (L.A. Confidential, 8 Mile). In additon, the legendary organist Bob Mitchell performs on the Orpheum’s original Mighty Wurlitzer organ before the show.

Learn more about North By Northwest: "Alfred Hitchcock and Cary Grant teamed up for a fourth and final time in this thriller about the cross-country pursuit of an advertising executive who is mistaken for a government agent. Considered one of Hitchcock’s best, the film gave us two iconic movie moments: the crop-dusting plane sequence, and a dramatic finale on the faces of Mt. Rushmore. Co-starring Eva Marie Saint, James Mason, and Martin Landau." Print and film still courtesy of Warner Bros. Entertainment
