Wrongly suspected of a crime, a man goes on the run in Alfred Hitchcock's 1942 thriller, essentially a first-run North By Northwest with its self-satisfied bad guy, its gun-wielding home help, its icy blonde Hitchcock female who gets swept up in the fugitive's plight and slowly thaws and falls in love, and with its final scene featuring a scramble over a national monument - the only thing it doesn't have is North By NorthWest's top tier actors.
