It finds the director covering very familiar territory, both thematically as it deals with an innocent man trying to clear his name and interpersonally as Hitch had previously worked with actors Cary Grant, Grace Kelly, and John Williams, screenwriter John Michael Hayes, and cinematographer Robert Burks who won an Academy Award for this film. read the full review | |

Alfred Hitchcock went a little soft in 1955, giving Cary Grant a largely throwaway role as a reformed cat burglar living incognito in the south of France. Hitch would really put Grant through the ringer in 1959's North by Northwest. Here, though, Grant's enjoying a day in the sun -- and night -- as he tries to track down the villain that's giving him a bad name. You see, John Robie (Grant) is retired. But some young upstart is stealing his M.O. -- and the new cat's eyes are on Robie's new would-be girlfriend, Frances (Grace Kelly), and her mom (Jessie Royce Landis). read the full review | |

 | | 5. To Catch a Thief | | | Starring: Cary Grant Grace Kelly Director: Alfred Hitchcock | | Format: DVD Release Date: 5/8/2007 |  | To Catch a Thief - Paramount Centennial Collection - DVD Review By: Dusty Somers - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 3/16/2009 10:18 PM | | A slight, but nevertheless enjoyable entry into the Alfred Hitchcock canon, To Catch a Thief is an escapist comic romance masquerading as a caper film. It has some of the trappings of more serious Hitchcock thrillers, such as hidden identities and a stakeout plot, but its concerns are mostly feather light – the witty repartee of Cary Grant and Grace Kelly along with the sparkling French Riviera that went a long way in securing the film’s cinematography Oscar. There’s no question Hitchcock had an eye for comedy, but much of To Catch a Thief’s success is due to the innuendo-packed script by John Michael Hayes, who also penned the screenplay for Rear Window. read the full review | |
