A to Z: Letter N


Notorious

An intriguing, spy thriller directed by Alfred Hitchcock. Notorious is written by Ben Hecht. Hecht was the first screenwriter to receive an Academy Award for Original Screenplay for the movie Underworld. (1927)
 Notorious opened in Theaters in 1946 and starred Ingrid Berman, the woman asked to spy against the Germans. And Cary Grant, the man she falls in love with.
 This is a great movie. Full of old fashion intrigue. 
 Trivia: How many movies did Bergman & Grant star in together?

    I'm afraid I have no idea as to the answer to the question and I haven't seen Notorious, but it sounds like one worth catching :).

    I think I'd like this movie. Cary Grant was the best.

    Well, I spent the last ten minutes cruising YouTube for this clip from the movie This Means War. I am *almost positive* that when Lauren and FDR (Reese Witherspoon and Chris Pine) meet at the video store this is the movie he recommends to her. Very funny scene. Alas, they don't have it on YouTube.... sigh.

    Haven't seen the actual movie... just a movie that talks about the movie:D

    Notorious was a great film. Hitchcock was brilliant.
    I'm not sure how many, but I'll guess three.

    I'm making a stab at one, Notorious. I loved watching both of them on the screen, but I can't remember how many movies they were in together.

    I LOVE this movie. A definite classic and I loved both Grant and Bergman in it.
    I'm going to guess they made 2 movies together.

      If you like old movies with intrigue, it's a good one.

    I'm a little embarrassed to admit I've never seen an Alfred Hitchcock movie...

    This is a fantastic film! Loved it! And Bergman is amazing!

    I only recall these two in this film. She was awesome in Gaslight too with Charles Boyer.
