I am slowly making my way through Criterion’s “Wrong Men and Notorious Women: Five Hitchcock Thrillers 1935 – 1946<\/strong><\/a>” box set. Last night I watched “Notorious<\/strong><\/a>.” Man-oh-man, I had forgotten just how great a film that is. This brings up my question (since we are all interactive here with a spankin’ new comment system) … how can you name the best Hitchcock film since they are all so damn good? Some folks break it down by time periods. British films. Vintage\/War Years. 1950’s Renaissance. Later Years. It’s tough to decide. Each film has something unique and different which is what makes Hitchcock the greatest movie director that ever was (and probably ever will be). <\/p>\n

My top five picks would be:
1. “Vertigo” 1958
2. “Notorious” 1946
3. “Strangers on a Train” 1951
4. “North by Northwest” 1958
5. “Rebecca” 1940<\/p>\n

Probably the single greatest movie going experience I have ever had was when they released the remastered print of “Vertigo” in theatres. To finally see it on the big screen was a movie geek’s wet dream. Pure heaven. So, what’s your favorite Hitchcock film(s)?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
