Hi everybody! Here is the video on the Crop Duster Scene from North by Northwest. It’s such an iconic scene and it was fascinating to learn the making of it, but it was really great to learn more about when to break subjectivity in filmmaking and why. All of the interviews and essays by Hitchcock have so much to offer on technique and cinematic storytelling—I definitely want to explore more of his insights.

Thanks so much for your continued support!
