Saboteur Overview:
Saboteur (1942) was a Mystery - Thriller/Suspense Film directed by Alfred Hitchcock and produced by Frank Lloyd and Jack H. Skirball.
SYNOPSIS
Hitchcock's briskly paced wartime thriller was made famous by the unforgettable climax that has the film's villain dangling from the torch of the Statue of Liberty. An aircraft worker (Cummings) becomes a fugitive when he's falsely accused of sabotaging the factory where he works. On a cross-country chase to clear his name, he remains a step ahead of the police and a step behind the real culprit, who's part of a ring of Nazi spies. A fascinating, twisty tale penned by Parker, Harrison, and Viertel, with the action set in some of America's most recognizable locations, including Radio City Music Hall, Boulder Dam, and, of course, the Statue of Liberty.
