Watching.....To Catch a Thief

I love Hitchcock films, but for some reason, I usually only watch them in the cooler fall and winter months. I have a weird, obsessive tendency to do everything seasonally, and not just food or fashion. There are certain books, movies, even music that I can only enjoy during the season I have determined they belong to. Sometimes it might make sense, and sometimes it probably doesn't, but I can't help it. In my world, the majority of Alfred Hitchcock films are best enjoyed cozied up under a blanket, in front of a roaring fire with a howling wind blowing outside. The exception to this rule: To Catch a Thief.








I have watched this movie about a hundred times and it remains one of my all time favorites, and perfect to watch in the hot summer months. Not only are Cary Grant and Grace Kelly absolutely perfect together in this movie, but the scenery is exquisite and I love being transported to the Riviera, if only for a few hours.
