| Summary |
"Cary Grant ... plays a Manhattan adman plunged into a realm of spy (James Mason) and counterspy (Eva Marie Saint) and variously abducted, framed for murder, chased, and, in a signature set piece, crop-dusted. He also hangs for dear life from the facial features of Mount Rushmore's presidents"--Container. |
