Alfred Hitchcock must have been the greatest director to never receive recongnition from the academy (except for a lifetime achievement award). He made 55 films--Here are my top ten:

1. Psycho (one of the great comedies of all time)
2. North by Northwest (a funny film, with great suspence and of course, Cary Grant).
3. The Trouble with Harry ( a little known Hitchcock film but well worth seeing with Shirley Maclaine and the Beav, Jerry Mathers).
4. Lifeboat (ingenious use of space and character study).
5. Strangers on a Train (just watch Robert Walkers gaze at Farley Granger as he plays tennis).
6. To Catch a Thief (delicious blend of comedy and suspence with Grace Kelly checking out her future home).
7. Rope (this is my favorite Hich-James Stewart collaboration)
8. Shadow of a Doubt (Hitch's own favorite of his films with Joseph Cotten as a lovable, murderous uncle).
9. The Lodger (Hitch's silent masterpiece is really the Jack the Ripper tale).
10. The Birds--just think what they did to the cats!!

I would have to say Psycho. That movie rocked. I like the three sequels too. The remake they did in the 90's sucked.

Hmm... it's been a while since I thought about Hitchcock films.

It's a tough choice, but the top 10, in no particular order:

1. Psycho
2. Lifeboat
3. Strangers on a Train
4. Rope
5. The Lodger
6. The Birds
7. Rear Window
8. Dial M for Murder
9. Rebecca

10. And, of course, "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" on TV.

:D

Birds and Psycho

Rebecca.

(It's the only one I've seen, but I've seen it a lot.)

Psycho and Birds

Rear Window. The Birds scared the hell outta me!

North by Northwest. Last summer a 99 cent theater had classic movie 2/1 thing going for a month. I saw Dial M for Murder(A Perfect Murder must have been based on that), and North by Norhtwest.

Rear Window. I also like Psycho, Vertigo, The Birds and The Trouble with Harry.

Psycho
The Birds
Rear Window

These 3 are my favorites..........

Jenney, just like you I think that Psycho is real good, actually I like all Hitchcock's original films. Note, his most graphic one of all was Frenzy, the story of a serial rapist-murder. By the way, I never bothered to see this remake, I mean why bother when you have the original.

Hitchcock is the master of suspense and I've seen 8 of his movies.

Order of favorites:

1. Rear Window
2. North by Northwest
3. Psycho
4. Strangers on a Train
5. The Birds
6. To Catch a Thief
7. Vertigo
8. Frenzy

I plan to see soon: Rope, Dial M for Murder, The Man Who Knew Too Much, Notorious, Marnie, Family Plot, Torn Curtain.

:talk: Phycho and Rope are by far my favorite Hitchcock films. The shower scene still makes me jump after seeing the movie at least a hundred times.....and the suspense the whole time during the film Rope just waiting for Jimmy Stewart to find the body....Great movies....They are must for any movie collector...

North by Northwest
Rear Window
Spellbound
Notorious
Vertigo
Rope
Strangers on a Train

I like that movie too. It's pretty weird seeing him in color don't you think?
