The 39 Steps is the most typical chase film of Hitchcock's British period as "With the North by Northwest" is for the American period. Throwing a drain full of unexpected, an innocent being tested in situations that are always new and often comical.

The denunciation of enemies within is a constant in his films, for whom the intelligence is an extension of war civil.
