As you may know by now, 2009 marks the 50th anniversary of Alfred Hitchcock's North by Northwest. So Warner Home video has arranged for a restoration of the film, releasing a DVD, as well as a Blu-Ray version, the first Hitchcock film yet to get this state-of-the-art video treatment.
In addition to returning DVD features, like a documentary hosted by Eva Marie saint, two new documentaries have been produced: "The Master’s Touch: Hitchcock’s Signature Style" and "North by Northwest: One for the Ages."
It looks like an excellent addition to any Hitchcock Geek's video collection.
How to win a free DVD.
I got my copy, and now you can get yours. The producers have made a couple of extra copies available to me to pass on to you. To get a chance at one of them, all I ask is that you help promote my blog. So I'm running a little contest. Here's how it works:
1. If you're on Twitter, simply follow me.
2. This Friday, November 27, #FollowFriday (#FF) me, as many times as you'd like. Be sure to include both my Twitter handle and my blog url (or the shortened version).

Last week, @carlotta_valdes won. Maybe this week, it'll be you!

I too will see if I can get the word out to other Twitter users about your contest.
By the way, that Blu-ray
copy of Hitchcock's North by Northwest will be on my Christmas list too!
Take care!
