It was on Turner last night, the 50s version with perennial virgin Doris Day and Jimmy Stewart.
Excellent!
Stewart plays a grumpy doctor and Doris, quite believably, plays a successful singer who has retired, against her will, to be a stay-at-home Mom.
Of course the plot was too intricate and far-fetched, almost absurd...exactly like North by Northwest. But with Hitch (at least many of his films) that's not the point. The tensions he creates, the skill of the actors and the cinematography, and the sophistication of the settings...it's almost like a Balzac novel filtered through a very English sensibility.
I believe I've seen the original Hitch version from the 30s, but I don't remember it...
