Editorial Reviews

To Catch a Thief is one of Alfred Hitchcock's more deceptively simple films. The wonderfully entertaining and attractive film feels so light and breezy, it's easy to miss the more serious social dimensions of the movie. There isn't much of the classic Hitchcockian menace or suspense, but there's always more going on than meets the eye. Though at times used to humorous effect, the overt sexuality between leads Cary Grant and Grace Kelly is more than just playful: Grant's subdued performance only highlights the distance between the two characters. There is also Hitchcock's emblematic technique of parallel characters, in this case Grant's cat burglar and Brigitte Auber's character, who is falsely accused of a crime. The latter perhaps wishes he committed the crime, and in a perverse sort of way, he actually does. To Catch a Thief appeared in the middle of Hitchcock's most popular string of films; though it may have been intended as a minor change of pace, the film is chock-full of classic images and thought-provoking peculiarity.

"Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown." Intended as comfort to private eye J.J. Gittes (Jack Nicholson), whose investigation of drought-ridden, 1930s-era Los Angeles water-use corruption ends tragically, the film's oft-quoted final line wearily acknowledges the futility of honorable motives. Nominated for 11 Oscars, Polanski's pessimistic 1974 film noir still remains the benchmark for the genre. In a much lighter vein, Hitchcock's Thief (1955) offers a mischievous mix of mystery, humor, and romance, starring Cary Grant as a former cat burglar suspected of returning to his old ways. Grace Kelly provides the love interest in this tantalizing concoction set on the French Riviera. VERDICT Stunning in their newly remastered high-definition presentations, these Paramount classics are de rigueur for core Blu-ray collections.—Jeff T. Dick, Davenport, IA
