One of my favorite foreign films of the past decade, dive. Let me know what you think as soon as you watch it !
I actually did buy Dogtooth yesterday feev, but haven't watched it yet. I'll let you know when I get round to watching it, though.

bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This film is making a lot of noise amongst art house crowds. Has anyone heard of it / seen it / plan on seeing it ?
Take Shelter.
I just watched the trailer, looks really good! Is it in theaters now?
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
I'm not sure ... the European release date was November 11th, and when I look at showtimes for L.A only one theater comes up ... that's either because it's been in theaters for a while, or it's about to become a wide release. Either way, I really want to see it.
Think one of the biggest surprise successes was ´The Artist´.

I'm in the mood for some Alfred Hitchcock films.
I've seen Vertigo, North by Northwest, The Birds, Rear Window and Psycho. What's his next best after these ?
Rebecca!!!! My favorite film of his. And one of my favorite films ever. And if I remember correctly this was one of the three I gave you to watch years ago!
I'd also highly recommend Strangers on a Train.
And after those some of my other favorites are Shadow of a Doubt, Suspicion, Saboteur, Lifeboat, and Dial M for Murder.
Also out of the ones you've seen (with the exception of Rear Window), I personally would never rank those as my favorites. They're really good, but he's got far better films.

what Heather said, and also Spellbound!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll follow your suggestion(s), Heather !
I like the more sinister elements of his films, to be honest. Vertigo and Rear Window were pretty much cinematic perfection for me. Do your recommendations share the same vein ?
Definitely Strangers on a Train! Just wait till you see some of the shots in that film. And Rebecca is just a beautiful film to watch. All the ones I recommended definitely have a darker side to them. I really think you'll enjoy them. Let me know when you watch them!

ROPE 1948 This film was shoot with no cuts between reel changes.
STRANGERS ON A TRAIN 1951 2 VERSIONS.
A bad Hitchcock movie is better than most other movies. One can never go wrong with any of them.
