Was just flipping channels and it's started tonight with The Ring. 08-31-2017 10:03 AMmae 04-04-2019 04:32 PMHeather19Just noticed that Hulu has 78/52. Watched it last night, and loved it. I wish they would make more films like this dissecting other prominent films or scenes. Definitely recommend it for any lover of this film, or any film lover in general. 06-21-2021 12:40 PMamd013For those Hitchcock fans out there, amazon is having a lightning deal on a Hitchcock collection. I bought it for the 2019 Primeday. It has 15 movies, liked 13 of them, one didn't really care for and 1 got bored and didn't finish. Plus has 10 episodes of Alfred Hitchcock presents.

If I remember, will be nominating these for the future best of the decades movie tournaments 06-21-2021 09:59 PMfrik 06-22-2021 01:51 PMamd013 06-23-2021 05:57 AMfrikYou should! You should!! Give it another try, I mean.
After all, we're talking Hitchcock here - and everything Hitchcock is worth seeing at least once.
Even though it is my least-favorite as well, the movie does have its defenders. IMDB's got it at a 6.2/10 rating. Could be worse, right?
sk 06-26-2021 10:22 PMratchet41really while Topaz (1969) isn't among my favorites of his i do think it's a pretty good movie, it's so not his worse movie there are some of his early ones that are just plain fucking terrible such as Murder (1930) i don't really care for the Original The Man who knew to Much (1934) that one bores the hell out of me. The Ring (1927) is a decent one but not among my favorites the black comedy The Farmer's Wife (1928) is among my favorites actually. The Skin Game (!931) is also pretty bad too. Hitch is my favorite Director it's sad that nearly all his films from before he was a director are sadly lost, a couple of them were found in recent years so that's a start i guess 06-28-2021 09:58 AMDoctorZaiusThanks to whomever revitalized this thread. Seems appropriate given we heading into the 60s in the film contest. Working ones way through the Hitchcock cannon if film is like a crash course in filmmaking. My recent watches were Rope and Lifeboat. Two greats for sure. The former for it's slicing together of film to create the illusion of a one-take real-time film, and the later for its single setting claustrophobic look at humanity. I look forward to perusing some previous posts. 06-28-2021 11:51 AMur2ndbiggestfanI'm no Hitchcock aficionado, but in going through my entire DVD collection from A to Z I just recently re-watched FAMILY PLOT and enjoyed it very much. (also watched THE BIRDS back in the B's)
I also just watched the new Blu-Ray of SILENT RUNNING and Dern mentions Hitchcock in the commentary. 06-28-2021 11:54 AMamd013The one movie I didn't like from the boxed set was Marnie, which is a shame since I love Connery.
Since watching these movies, have managed to catch "To Catch a Thief", and "Strangers on a Train". Still on the lookout for any movies on streaming sites I have access to. 06-28-2021 12:09 PMmaeTCM just added a bunch of Hitchcock. 06-28-2021 12:24 PMratchet41Marnie (1964) i think is a pretty good one not among my favorites either though did anyone ever read the Evan Hunter book that he wrote about his time with Hitch? he started out writing some of Presents for him and than he wrote The Birds (1963) for him enjoyed his time with him than he started work on Marnie (1964) and than refused to write the scene to have Connery Rape his wife it's been a long time since i've seen the film to be fair so i don't really remember it.
there's also 2 different versions of Strangers on a train (1951) both of them have different scenes in them i do wonder how long and how the film would be if they did splice them all together? the UK and the US both end differently actually and on the Original dvd i dunno about any of the other releases they have it marked on the case so it tells you what scenes were added. honestly i think the US version is Superior in every way 03-16-2022 12:40 PMTommy 03-16-2022 04:42 PMHeather19Curious what it is now. Have the top few changed around? I should try to put together my list. 03-17-2022 12:03 PMTommy 03-18-2022 02:30 PMamd013I believe I have seen about 18.5 now (not sure if I saw both versions of The man who knew too much). I have also seen two remakes of The Lady vanishes, and a remake of Rebecca, but not the Hitchcock versions. 03-19-2022 11:02 AMHeather19Rebecca is my all-time favorite Hitchcock movie. Highly recommend it. 12-16-2022 05:18 PMOdettaVertigo is my all-time favorite Hitchcock movie. I love the music in it! 06-27-2023 11:19 AMmae 09-28-2023 08:29 AMmae
