  I've seen the film twice now, and think that Hitchcock is a fairly
constant shadow in it, not least because of the theme of chaos
erupting into an ordered existence.  One of the many hints of the
Hitchcock influence is the location of the ritualized orgy in Glen
Cove, which is of course the community to which Roger Thornhill was
kidnapped at the beginning of 'North by Northwest."
