The 39 Steps

Alfred Hitchcock's 1935 classic thriller. ALFRED HITCHCOCK considered THE 39 STEPS to be one of his favourite films, partly because it launched his classic theme of the innocent man on the run from the villains and lawmen alike, and partly because of the film's exhilirating pace. Robert Donat stars as Richard Hannay in this freely adapted version of John Buchan's story. Despite repeated re-makes Hitchcock's rivetting original remains unequalled. © Rank Film Distributors Release.
