The last part I find interesting about Hitch, and if I dont get a move on and eat some breakfast I may end up watching it this morning, but wait with Netflix on demand I may be able to watch it anytime..... The Wreck of the Mary Deare is a 1959 Metrocolor British-American thriller film directed by Michael Anderson and starring Gary Cooper, Charlton Heston, Michael Redgrave, Cecil Parker, Richard Harris and John Le Mesurier, based upon the novel by Hammond Innes. A merchant marine captain, Gideon Patch (Gary Cooper) decides to stay aboard a sinking ship, in order to prove that it was sabotaged to collect insurance on cargo that had secretly been off-loaded at Rangoon. Background[edit] The novel was optioned by MGM with the intention of having Alfred Hitchcock direct and Cooper star. Hitchcock had long wanted to work with Cooper, but after developing the script with Ernest Lehman for several weeks, they concluded that it couldnt be done without turning the movie into a boring courtroom drama. They abandoned the idea and started a new story which eventually became North by Northwest.[3]
