The 39 Steps 9/9

[@theuofc]

Love, love, love this version with Rupert Penry-Jones. Thank you for sharing Part 9!

[@TheOrnella09]

Loved it! He is absolutely gorgeous!

Knowing she's alive could fuel a mans heart through the war....a goal, something to keep you pushing through.....

[@voltape]

Well I have just watched it in Films&Arts (Sept 21,2011)- I got hooked with it when it had already begun. Thanks for hanging it here so I can relish it. Great suspense!

[@hayden1188]

Very enjoyable version. Full of great dialogue and action. Buchan, I think, would have approved.

[@peggybaker6945]

Loved it :) Thank you so much for uploading!

[@marquilla]

Thank you for uploading!

[@katehollyoake1801]

it's great while your watching it, but once it's over i couldn't say it will be rememberable.

[@boleyn123]

O.K. Thank you for your comments. I do realize the similarities now. I still don't think it's exactly a remake, but you are right the similarities are remarkable. Both good films I thought. Guess I should watch movies more closely. Cheers.

[@hayden1188]

There are at least four versions of John Buchan's The 39 Steps, none of them really like the book. . One starring Robert Donat, another starring Kenneth More, a third starring Robert Powell and this version which I really enjoyed. . Thanks very much for posting.

[@Ledalena]

Finally! Thank you thank you!

[@homealone2nana]

can't thank you enough!

[@kaymasters3127]

I really enjoyed it but wasn't expecting that ending.

[@Jolene8]

Loved it!... Thank you!

When we return to London I intend to woo you: flowers, dinner, dancing ❤️

amazing actor who rupert

[@jaxsun1555]

In prior film adaptations the ending is much different. This 1980 version has a far more dramatic and noble ending than the prior films. The professor who is wounded gets one gun shot at Victoria who falls off the pier with a bullet wound. Hannay (our hero) finds a gun and shoots the professor dead. Then after the gun fight, Hannay dives into the bay to search for Victoria. The Commander of the Secret Service tries to console Richard. The voice over declares that even tho Victoria & Richard were able to avoid a German invasion of England, they were not able to stop the course of history as England went to War under Winston Churchill. The last scene shows Harry (Victoria's brother) whispering to Richard that Victoria wanted to say farewell. They nod, and then she disappears as a load of luggage passes between them. It is Harry who encourages the viewer by saying to Richard "We'll see you after the war." Jax Sun

Esta version me encanto, gracias por compartirla.

[@TheIsreal0312]

Does anyone besides me notice that North By Northwest is a remake of The 39 Steps. Since both were Hitchcock Films, I guess that would make sense.

[@emmak366]

God he's gorgeous.

[@ellenspear7368]

Right?

[@borissavinkov440]

I can think if 39 reasons to ignore this movie. They should have stuck with the original story. The BBC strikes again.

[@ZiddersRooFurry]

I liked this. Thank you.

[@freedomsorator2217]

big thank youuuuuuuuuuuu...

[@04loree]

Thanks a lot!

[@charpyles8923]

Some men only "think" they're beautiful to look at.......................This dude not only knows it but IS!!!!!! Rupert Penry-Jones is beyond gorgeous!

[@LetterNo1]

Well if that was not a depressing ending i don't know what is.

[@resculptit]

I'll miss the old "Mr. Memory" showing at the London Palladian. Hitchcock used that twist quite well.

[@ellenspear7368]

Very different, and better in my view, than the fusty Hitchcock film of the mid-1930s.

[@Tinkerbell5046]

just your opinion, but this was excellent, far better than any version, i have seen since Hitchcocks....

[@Vic0008]

Muchísimas gracias!!!

[@ThinLynottFan]

@wenedsday I agree that no film could ever parallel Hitchcock's classic, but I think you're being a little harsh. Of all the versions of this story produced subsequent to the 1935 film, this is by far my favourite. I like how it intermingles aspects of the novel by Buchan and Hitchcock's film. Also, the added ingredient of the suffragist movement adds some extra flavour to this film. I particularly like the open ending which provides the opportunity for a sequel. Perhaps Greenmantle?

[@typower9]

This is completely the wrong period for the suffragettes!

[@alistairkewish651]

no film ever produced sticks to the book. The scriptwriter feels bound to alter things a bit - or quite a lot? The 1930s version goes well wide of the book. The location of the 39 Steps is never revealed. I often wonder why this is.

[@colinscougar]

I found the first part and yours as well, but somehow I cannot find episode 6, can you help? Thanks

[@boleyn123]

Where on earth did you get that from? North by Northwest was a fantasy and a vehicle for Cary Grant. The 39 Steps was an espionage thriller. They are not even remotely similar.

[@sammyanne1985]

Loch Katrine ♥

[@bugisami]

I don't understand the ending.

[@TheIsreal0312]

I really enjoyed the intrigue and the opposes attracting romance, but I do not understand the cloak and dagger, top secret ending. The German spies will be executed for murder and the Uncle will be executed as a traitor, so no one will know that Victoria is a spy.

[@ETrevar]

Nice bits of acting, that, from Rupert Penry-Jones. Shows some subtlety and nuance of interpretation. Must have been miserable to film the water scenes, though. Cold and soaking wet through take after take.

[@josephedwin1995]

And the war lasted years

[@TheIsreal0312]

Here are the similarities. 1) An ordinary man is falsely accused of murder 2) He picks up the murder weapon and leaves his finger prints 3) He is becomes the captive of and is chased by foreign agents 4) The foreign agents use an airplane to chase him through a field and kill him using the airplanes machine guns. 5) The becomes involved with a beautiful female secret agent working under cover 6) He is cleared of the murder charges by the government 7) Hitchcock directed both movies

[@typower9]

It would probably be fair to say that North by northwest was a film using many elements from the 39 steps to make a sort of version of the story that he felt would be right for American audiences.

[@TheWuschelMUC]

Did anybody read the book? It is not too similar to both movies.

[@99beowulf99]

I agree, all the movies pull a little from the book, but it is such a good story I wonder that no one had the guts NOT to change it.

[@JesusGama-t7q]

❤

[@brunachogutierrez2815]

ni idea..

[@genevieverenaud2537]

OMG Chandler and Morgan again together lol anyways she has a bad habit of dying after they kiss !!

[@lesliejabine1783]

Yes, that episode of WhiteChapel basically broke my heart!

[@lucianasalles7272]

Willian está tudo bem Amor

[@lucianasalles7272]

Comigo fica tudo bem

[@nghariad1]

Thuis version was almost nothing like the book!!!!!!!

[@jimmy31hendrix]

Vea pues . . .

[@wenedsday]

Forget this version.... it is insipid.... go check out the Hitchcock version.... it is old, but it is the best!

[@typower9]

The heroine's clothing and hair are from the wrong historical period!

[@robertjones-eb4xo]

Made with women in mind, rubbish, no Theatre or Mr Memory Man, or..............Kenneth More ?

[@raylenenielsen5943]

If one thinks of this as a movie all its own rather than a remake, it really is good. Just don’t try to compare it to any of the others.

[@99beowulf99]

That wasn't in the book either.

[@ALKINDIfr]

very bad version!
