ABOUT THE FILMS: STRANGERS ON A TRAIN, 1951, Alfred Hitchcock, 101 MINUTES, Warner Bros., USA A chance encounter between tennis champion Guy (Farley Granger) and psychopath Bruno (Robert Walker) on a train triggers an unstoppable race toward double murder. Hitchcock’s classic thriller is a finely-tuned engine of suspense, taking barely a breath as it steams through a spine-tingling story of fate, coincidence, guilt and psychopathology – favorite themes of noir writer Patricia Highsmith, whose novel was adapted by the great Raymond Chandler. FORMAT: 35mm TO CATCH A THIEF, 1955, Alfred Hitchcock, 106 MINUTES, Paramount, USA Retired cat burglar Cary Grant and American party girl Grace Kelly fall in love against a backdrop of fireworks, the French Riviera and a string of unsolved jewel robberies – all the while wearing some of Edith Head’s most stunning costumes. Alfred Hitchcock’s tongue-in-cheek soufflé, complete with surprisingly daring sexual innuendos for the time, is perfect escapist fare. With Charles Vanel (WAGES OF FEAR), Brigitte Auber. FORMAT: 35mm
