I, Spy FF: Notorious (1946)
Playing as part of Academy's I, SPY FILM FESTIVAL June 02 -14.
With this twisted love story, Alfred Hitchcock summoned darker shades of suspense and passion by casting two of Hollywood’s most beloved stars starkly against type. Ingrid Bergman plays Alicia, an alluring woman with a checkered past recruited by Devlin (Cary Grant), a suave, mysterious intelligence agent, to spy for the U.S. Only after she has fallen for Devlin does she learn that her mission is to seduce a Nazi industrialist (Claude Rains) hiding out in South America.
Coupling inventive cinematography with brilliantly subtle turns from his mesmerizing leads, Hitchcock orchestrates an anguished romance shot through with deception and moral ambiguity. A thriller of rare perfection, NOTORIOUS represents a pinnacle of both its director’s legendary career and classic Hollywood cinema.
“A must-see or must-see-again”
Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian
“Still hard to beat for pure, polished entertainment’s most endearing and adored auteurs”
