Okay, that’s a tough one. I’ve been trying to dredge up the name of the woman who played the wife/mother role in this one, but the film focused so much on the father/son relationship and it’s been a long time… maybe Eva Marie Saint (is that the right name?) ---

Wow, really, **Shibb**? You’ve been doing this without recourse to IMDb? I’m in awe. Yes, Eva Marie Saint was in _Nothing in Common_, so she’s good – I’ll go for her second-best known film, _North by Northwest_ ---

I knew it was something like that, but I thought I might have screwed the name up. Wasn’t Cary Grant the protagonist in North by Northwest? Not that I’m old enough to remember these kinds of things, really. ---
