    Rebecca (no one else has love for this film??).

    Yes. While I've seen a large part of Hitcock's films, this was missing on my list until I saw it just two months ago. Classic Hitchcock.

    Am I wrong or could the Manderlay Estate be considered the set design blueprint for all "trapped in a spooky old mansion" films since then?

    rope is great and kinda weird and restrained for a hitchcock flick. watched that this weekend too

    anyway, how great is this Polish poster for Vertigo? i like how there is a spiral on the skull to symbolize vertigo.




  • never heard of this one before I love Mr. MacMurray in Double Indemnity so I will have to go seek.

    it's ridiculous that Double Indemnity
    isn't available on DVD.
    i wonder what the roadblock is?

    *edit* hold the phones, it's being released on Aug 22. nice!

    my faves are probably Psycho (obvious, but damn it doesn't get much better) Notorious, and Rebecca (no one else has love for this film??).

    Yeah it's a proper piece of gothic meoldrama. Would have been interesting if they'd risked going with the novel's original ending where i believe


    *spoiler*


    He did actually murder his wife rather than her die in an accident


    *spoiler*


    Still highly enjoyable film and, i believe pretty unusually for Hitchcock, told from a female point of view.
