To Catch a Thief

To Catch a Thief

1955

Cary Grant plays reformed jewel thief John Robie in this classic Hitchcock thriller. Suspected in a new series of gem heists in the luxury hotels of the French Riviera, Robie sets out to clear himself -- and catch the real thief -- with the help of pampered heiress Frances (Grace Kelly). His plan backfires, but Frances, who believes him guilty, proves her love by helping him escape. In a spine-tingling climax, the real criminal is exposed.

WANTED by the police in all the luxury-spots of Europe!... A catch for any woman!
