To Catch a Thief
1955
***
Director: Alfred Hitchcock
Cast: Cary Grant, Grace Kelly, Jessie Royce Landis, John Williams, Charles Vanel, Brigitte Auber
A very ordinary Hitchcock thriller about a cat burglar who has retired to the French Riviera. Now he wants to prove his innocence and attempts to capture the real jewel thief. The stars are attractive but the story is forgettable. Robert Burks' cinematography won an Academy Award. Loosely based on David Dodge's novel.
