North by Northwest
This is a Hitchcock film starring Cary Grant and Eva Marie Saint. It is one of his funniest, and in typical Hitchcock fashion, it mirrors reality, yet bends it. In this film, a man encounters strange events because he's confused with someone else. He's innocent and should be a bystander but as in life, somehow becomes involved simply because events draw him in. He's not in control. The sovereign God is, and He works events out, as the man becomes more than he ever intended to me, loves more than he thought possible, and gets a wife in the bargain. The man wins even though he's an amateur, but he wants, perhaps for the first time in his life, to do the right thing. God obliges him. Quite a trip with lots of action, suspense, comedy, and entertainment - like life itself. You can watch it over and over and still enjoy it.
