Alfred Hitchcock's Complete Filmography Ranked | Hitchcock Month 2022

[@jamesbarwise3508]

I'm watching all the Hitchcocks this year so this list is really appreciated! - Lady Vanishes is ranked criminally low - My heart is broken that North by Northwest doesn't make the Top 5 - Huge respect for the high ranking of Dial M for Murder

[@maplestreetmovies]

That’s so exciting!! My attitude with any low ranking of a movie many love: just goes to show how great his other movies are! I did see NbNW in theaters earlier this month and that was an amazing experience!! Still love the movie.

[@Onni-vh1wu]

My favorite Hitchcock movie is hands down Rear Window. It's such an amazing movie and the use of diagetic sound and the way most of the movie is from Jeffries' point of view is fantastic and makes it an obvious favorite. (Vertigo is a close second)

[@maplestreetmovies]

I can't argue any of those points! It really is a full-on masterpiece!

[@filmbuster2619]

My all time favorite director. Not all of his movies are masterpieces, but even a mediocre Hitchock film like Stage Fright or Torn Curtian are better than the average film.

[@maplestreetmovies]

Agreed!

[@jacquespoulemer3577]

Someone quipped 'Better bad Hitchcock than no Hitchcock'

[@joealexandra7185]

I watch the so-called failures with as much rapt attention and curiosity as I do the masterpieces, but I admit to being a fanatic.

[@hopsiepike]

The greatest thing about Hitchcock is that no matter how many times I have watched his best movies with a mind to analyze his technique, I get caught up by those very tricks and lose myself in the story yet again.

[@maplestreetmovies]

@@hopsiepike totally agree!

[@languagetutor5096]

My favorite director! I’ve found that whenever I’m able to get someone to watch a Hitchcock film they are very much pleasantly surprised. It’s hard to get people to watch movies older than twenty years already and even harder to get them to watch a movie as old as a Hitchcock film.

[@maplestreetmovies]

I agree! My friend was complaining the other day about how old Mission Impossible 1 was. I was speechless haha!

I just found you on You Tube and I am so glad I did. I am so impressed that a young man like you is so into all of my favorite TV shows and movies. My personal favorite of Hitchcock is North by Northwest...I have watched it so many times I have lost count.

[@robertplattner1636]

I don’t remember if I mentioned this in another comment section, but in the summer of 2021, I had the pleasure of directing the final scene from the original play version of Rope. I had so much fun! This summer I did a scene from the other famous Patrick Hamilton play, Gaslight. It was my favorite moment of the summer and something that I had been looking forward to everything coming together for over 4 weeks. I even put wheels on a roll top desk so I could get it into the theatre.

[@maplestreetmovies]

What an awesome experience! I bet you’ll never forget it!

[@trannongoble7722]

As a major Hitchcock fan for over 35 years, I appreciate this video. And I agree with the high rankings of ROPE and PSYCHO!

Thank you so much!! Funny enough, I just rewatched Rope earlier tonight!

[@julius-stark]

North By Northwest, Vertigo, Rear Window, Psycho, The Birds are probably my top 5, though I do really love Dial M For Murder, Notorious, and Strangers on a Train.

[@scmkar]

Great list.. Wow... 52 films! I think I have seen about 15 from him and I think NOTORIOUS is my fav so far :-)

[@maplestreetmovies]

Great choice!!

[@jsg697]

GREAT VIDEO! I’m new to Alfred Hitchcock! I watched Psycho last night for the first time and was completely amazed at how great it was! Now I want to see them all!

[@maplestreetmovies]

Welcome to the fan club!! So glad you loved it!

[@satyarthsingh2276]

I first discovered Hitch during pandemic in '20 and watched 17 of his films that year. Somehow never went back to any of his films after that and this video just might motivate me to go on with his filmography. Great vid, cheers from India!

[@thebadfella5296]

I love Rear Window, Vertigo and North by Northwest, but as long as Psycho's #1, we can be friends

[@RhymesChant]

I personally think Marnie 1964 is highly underrated 😢

[@youngsteph1]

I agree, & is certainly one of his best movies. His last great movie in all honesty.

[@maximillianford9301]

I think every Hitchcock fan has one post-Birds film that they gravitate to as a criminally underrated piece that turns back the clock in parts. For me it's Family Plot. Watched it again after about fifteen years recently and the plot (pun intended) riveted me, especially the first half hour. Really underrated cinematography in it too. It's a great thing to be able to continue finding gems even after exhausting the masterpieces

[@alexcrisci1764]

This video couldn't have come at a better time for me! I've recently gotten into the Hitchcock filmography and have been looking for a comprehensive guide for a newbie (and with over 50 films and conflicting rank lists I haven't found any consensus) . Rear Window, Vertigo, Dial M, and Psycho have become all time favorites for me! subscribed immediately

[@maplestreetmovies]

Thank you so much Alex, really appreciate it! Hope you stick around all month long for the Hitchcock videos I have and hope this one can help you now and in the future!

[@robertjewell9727]

Fascinating line-up that I can't entirely agree with, but appreciate highly. My friend Dorothy is Bernard Herrmann's daughter and we recently continued our argument about MARNIE, which she's not fond of but I think is an essential Hitchcock film. Let me recommend Robin Wood's Hitchcock's Films if you haven't read it.

[@maplestreetmovies]

That’s a cool connection!! And I’ll check that out!

[@clumsydad7158]

I've come to find Marnie essential and highly underrated as well. Up around the top 10 for me.

[@darrenhoskins8382]

OMG The 39 Steps! And Lifeboat are both completely brilliant (imo 🤔)

The 39 Steps is just a superb watch - dated absolutely, but in my top 10 Hitchcock movies.

[@joslynscott466]

This is my second show of yours that I've watched. You know what your talking about. I was able to watch some of his tv shows in rerun while growing up. However, my first time watching his movies was in the 80s when five of them were taken out of the vault for the first time. They were shown on a limited basis across the country. None of the major theater chains were able to show them. I watched them in a lovely theater built in the 40s with uncomfortable seats and great acoustics. The five movies were aired over the entire summer. It was called "Dial H for Hitchcock". While i was buying popcorn for Rear Window, my state governor stood right next to me ordering popcorn. 😊 Pretty cool. Thanks.

[@maplestreetmovies]

Thank you for watching and sharing that memory. Loved hearing. I'd love to participate in Dial H for Hitchcock!

[@FredrickRogers-h9y]

Excellent job. A very competitive review of all films in Hitch's catalog. And I agree Psycho is definitely number one. It's not just the greatest picture he ever made, it's one of the greatest pictures ever made, period.

@@FredrickRogers-h9y thank you so much! I totally agree, an all-timer for sure!

[@movierules5277]

Fantastic video! I've watched it when it first came out, but haven't commented since then because I wanted to watch every single Hitchcock film before finally coming back to your superb ranking :) So here it is (there are some hot takes, as you will see, but also many films I'm sure you'll agree upon). 52. Juno and the Paycock (frustratingly boring and uninspired) 51. Topaz (it has a few good scenes but overall very boring, too) 50. Family Plot (the closing shot is great but, aside from that, there isn't much I appreciated) 49. Champagne (pretty oblivious) 48. Mr. & Mrs. Smith (sorry but totally not my type of humour) 47. Easy Virtue (a few good scenes but the plot is just so frustrating to follow) 46. The Pleasure Garden (I liked the last 15 minutes but that's about it) 45. The Paradine Case (certainly one of the weakest courtroom dramas I've ever watched) 44. The Skin Game (as you've said, the auction scene and the ending is great) 43. Waltzes from Vienna (nice ending, however, it couldn't portray the power of music properly ... which is very unfortunate for a biopic about a musician) 42. The Manxman (the plot is oblivious but I appreciated the island setting) 41. The Ring (it has its great sequences but, as you said, I hated the whole love story) 40. Rich and Strange (honestly, I chuckled a few times and the sinking ship was well shot) 39. Number 17 (totally agree with you - it's so bad it's good ... or at least mediocre) 38. Torn Curtain (aside from the farmhouse and the bus sequence, I thought it dragged a lot) 37. I Confess (interesting premise, however, I didn't like Cliff's acting in this one) 36. Young and Innocent (the weakest from all the 'innocent man is on the run' films but still entertaining) 35. Secret Agent (very oblivious protagonist but I really liked its plot and Peter Lorre) 34. Notorious (I know this is my biggest hot take but this one just never really connected with me) 33. Murder! (the whodunit aspect is weak but everything else is certainly ahead of its time) 32. The Farmer's Wife (totally agree with you, so funny and also touching!) 31. The 39 Steps (I like it but I think the concept was done better in later films) 30. To Catch a Thief (beautifully filmed, however, I didn't care so much for the plot) 29. Marnie (sometimes a little over the top but it has very intriguing characters) 28. Under Capricorn (I know the plot isn't great but I just adore the setting and the way it's filmed!) 27. Downhill (one of his most underrated films in my opinion) 26. Stage Fright (fast-paced, funny and a very surprising reveal near the end) 25. Lifeboat (totally agree with you - great plot but I destested the protagonist) 24. Jamaica Inn (Charles Laughton at his best!) 23. Suspicion (so suspenseful and such great acting!) 22. Shadow of a Doubt (it's like 'Suspicion', only a little better) 21. Blackmail (yes, the blackmailing aspect is not so great but I was really impressed by the first half of the film being extraordinarily bleak and progressive) 20. Saboteur (the second-best 'innocent man on the run' film in my opinion) 19. The Lady Vanishes (such a great concept and very charmingly put together) 18. The Man Who Knew Too Much (1934) (Peter Lorre at his best and overall beautifully filmed) 17. North by Northwest (my favourite Cary Grant and also my favorite 'innocent man on the run' film) 16. The Lodger (one of the most creative silent films I've ever watched) 15. The Wrong Man (for me it's the darkest and most emotional Hitchcock film) 14. Rebecca (a superb drama, I only wish they would've allowed Hitchcock to adapt the shocking reveal as it was written in the novel) 13. The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956) (as you said, everything but the villain is better than in the original) 12. Sabotage (that bomb sequence will haunt me for the rest of my life) 11. Spellbound (so surreal and somnambulistic) 10. Foreign Correspondent (I love it so much that you put that film so high on your list as well) 9. The Trouble with Harry (I laughed so many times in this film and it has this beautiful autumnal atmosphere) 8. Frenzy (I know you disagree with me on that but I think this encapsulates everything that Hitchcock is known for) 7. The Birds (the only true horror film he made and he did a fantastic job!) 6. Dial M for Murder (I loved the Agatha Christie touch it's got to it) 5. Psycho (so revolutionary and I can totally understand why it's your #1) 4. Strangers on a train (Bruno Antoni is my favorite Hitchcock villain of all time) 3. Vertigo (so enchanting and suspenseful) 2. Rope (I'm so glad this one is so high on your list as well) 1. Rear Window (well, I guess this isn't much of a surprise) Once again, thank you so much for your videos! You're always entertaining and I can't wait for Hitchcock Month 2024!

[@maplestreetmovies]

Wow thank you so much for this in-depth comment! So honored you came back to share. And congrats on finishing his filmography! That is a BIG deal! Great ranking, loved seeing the differences and similarities in our lists.

[@thunderbladestorm]

The only thing that (for me) makes Vertigo a personal no. 2 ever filmed - is the twist, and not the twist itself which i utterly adore by the way, it's the timing of it. If that had been revealed in the very last scene - would of turned out beyond perfect. Think about it - the main female character is gone, the male lead still in love with her finds "her" again, does everything in his power to turn her into "her" The "second" female lead has to be a 100% crazy to let anyone do all of that to her, the male lead obsessed by what happened to him not once but twice (and the second time when he was over the top in love - which made it ten times worse) finally has what he was after from the very first scene where he saw her in that green dress and a 100% after he saved her from almost drowning - and then "he looses it" - just take a close look at his face after he kisses him without knowing what You've known from the middle of the feature. The drive to the tower and the entire tower climbing to the top creates pure thriller in the upcoming moments - and you as a viewer haven't got a clue why what you're seeing is happening when he finally has what he's been after, and then, AND THEN ... You find out - what he figured out when he took a look at her in the mirror after the transformation and saw ... "HER" and then the rest plays out exactly as it did - and ends tragically as it did If Hitch did that and the movie it self could never get more than a 10 i personally would of given it an 11 without a seconds thought. Vertigo is not just a pure Hitchcock masterpiece - it's one of the greatest things cinema itself has ever gone through and seriously doubt any thriller will ever come close to it

[@maplestreetmovies]

I love this!! It’s so great to hear a fan be so passionate over a movie, you made me like it more just by reading! 🤣

[@jasongoestohell]

HI Nathan! Really enjoyed this video! Alfred Hitchcock is one of my favorite directors of all time! My favorite underrated Hitchcock film of all time is Torn Curtain! I wish it could have ranked a bit higher on your list. Yes the bus chase scene is great but so was the museum scene where you only hear footsteps, the farmhouse murder, and the ballet scene. But I'm glad you really liked Notorious though! And I didn't like Vertigo the first time but loved it when I got older and had repeat viewings. So many other great Hitchcock films! I wish I could chat with you about all of them! 😁

[@maplestreetmovies]

You reminded me of how much I loved the museum scene in Torn Curtain! Definitely is still a great movie.

Three Hitchcock films were inspired by Daphne DuMaurier works: Jamaica Inn, Rebecca, and The Birds.

[@poetcomic1]

When I was about 14 years old in the mid 1960's I had already become an old movie lover and would eagerly check over each week's TV movie listings. Several were listed as 'directed by Alfred Hitchcock' and I soon became totally in sync with the style, the ART of it. There were NO BOOKS at this time on his films that I know of. I finally had the brilliant idea of asking a librarian in the local library how to find a list of films he had directed. This genius librarian went to 'Who's Who' which had a complete list of all the films he had made. This made my TV Guide cruising MUCH easier. I'll never forget that because of a missing comma in the Who's Who I had always looked for a film I thought was called "Rope Under Capricorn'.

Here's my list and I'll touch on some of your thoughts on each one, don't want to be too long winded lol 1 North by Northwest (The G.O.A.T of all espionage films, this might have been the first blockbuster and action film ever made) 2 Vertigo (You mentioned it and so did Scorsese "you haven't seen Vertigo if you seen it once" The first time I watched it, I had it at a number 6, lots changed after my 2nd viewing) 3 Psycho (Your love shows with your enthusiasm and research and diving into the supplements of it. It's a perfect film for a stormy night) 4 Rear Window (Grace Kelly's introduction is one of the best, the way she leans in to a waking Stewart to give him a kiss, so hypnotic, so dreamy) 5 The Birds (The Truffaut interview explains alot of Hitchcocks struggles and ultimately how it brought genius out of him. Love Hitch when he does horror) 6 Rope 7 Notorious (Espionage with the gorgeous Ingrid Bergman.... and Cary Grant.... annnnnnndddd Claude Rains!!!) 8 Foreign Correspondent (I love your high ranking! It has so many great moments. The ones you mentioned and also where he's escaping on the hotel rooftop with the sign turning into "Hot Europe", the Westminster Cathedral Tower, plus when they tried to get Van Meer to reveal the secret clause and the fight that insues after. An underrated Hitchcock and espionage adventure film. Christopher Nolan loves it too! The only thing I had a problem with and it's a big problem because I'm a sucker for romance... was the romance. Usually the chemisty between the leads in a Hitchcock film adds layers to it but it doesnt here, him sending her those silly notes while she tried to make a speech was the only time I felt invested in their relationship. Such a cool undercover name they gave to him too, Huntley Haverstock! Oscar nominated for best picture!) 9 The Lady Vanishes (Number 32 for you 😢 I absolutely love this film, the mystery, so charming, the characters, the romance between the 2 which I place in my top 5 for Hitchcock films and it being on a train most of the time. Such a great setpiece/ride!) 10 The 39 Steps (The blueprint for the innocent man on the run, love how each person he runs into his an attractive woman, the spy who got him in the situation, the crofters wife and the main girl who snitched on him, despised him but finally fell for him. Really felt like he could have hooked up with each one of them too lol) 11. Rebecca 12 Frenzy (Wow #45, I understand though the subject matter is already stomach turning but I absolutely love this film. It has Hitchcocks most sinister villan. Its full of jaw dropping moments. The camera retreating back down the steps an into the streets leaving us with our own imagination of whats happening to Babs in Rusks room. The potato truck scene is all time suspenseful and classic!) 13. Strangers on a train 14 To Catch a Thief (Feels like Bond on vacation. On a light adventure mainly for the sights and the pleasures of hooking up with a new flame lol 🎆 15 The Man Who Knew Too Much *remake* 16 Family Plot (Such a treat for your last film to finish his filmography being Hitchcocks last film he directed. I just ordered this movie today lol $8.99 it was on sale. Would you buy it for that much? You mentioned liking Barbara Harris she actually got a golden globe nomination for this, best actress in a motion picture - comedy or musical. And of course it is written by the great Ernest Lehman) 17: lifeboat 18. Saboteur 19 Suspicion 20 Shadow of a doubt (Has one of the most adorable leads, she should have been in more of his films. You mentioned on the Truffaut book he cleared up Shadow of a doubt not being his favorite, did he say what is?) 21 sabotage 22 Young and Innocent 23 torn curtain 24 the lodger 25 topaz 26 Stage fright 27 I confess 28 dial m for murder 29 the man who knew too much 1934 30 marnie 31 the wrong man 32 number 17 33 blackmail 34 the trouble with harry 35 secret agent 36 paradine case 37 Mr and Mrs Smith 38 spellbound 39 pleasure garden 40 under Capricorn 41 Jamaica Inn 42 Waltz From Vienna

Thank you for your amazing ranking! Read through it all, and like with any ranking, I agreed and disagreed 😂 but that’s what made it great! I definitely am curious to see if Lady Vanishes moves up in the years to come. I’m so glad you liked Saboteur (even with Robert Cummings). I already own Family Plot, but yes I’d pay that much! I’d say Torn Curtain is worth 8.99, but maybe not topaz. They’re both fine movies, Torn Curtain is better though. I hope I still like Mr. and Mrs. Smith on a rewatch 😅 movies I’m sad to see so low on your list: Spellbound, Trouble With Harry, and Mr. and Mrs. Smith lol. Thanks for watching and leaving such a great comment!

@@maplestreetmovies Thank you for reading it all! It was quite alot lol. Yes agreements and disagreements is what makes it all fun. Orson Welles reportedly watched The Lady Vanishes 12 times, that's alot for back then lol. It definitely got better with me, the 1st watch I couldn't wait for the night to end so they can get on the train but now I appreciate the character development and slow build. Ok Torn Curtain will be bought lol and maybe Topaz. Yes, I hope you dont lose love for Mr and Mrs. Smith on the rewatch, I had it in my top 20 before the 2nd viewing. Yes, they are low but I think Trouble With Harry and Spell Bound are both good movies. I'd give 7/10 to each. Thank you again Nate!

[@davidranderson1]

Congratulations on scaling that mountain! Although I've seen many of Hitchcock's movies multiple times (and have copies of all the ones that still exist), I still need to watch a couple of the talkies and most of the silents. Most of your picks were within 5 or so spots of where I rank them. But, I disagree most when it comes to Frenzy (top 15 for me), Lady Vanishes (top 10), and 39 Steps (top 5). The 39 Steps and the Lady Vanishes were the absolute best of Hitchcock's British thriller movies, and Frenzy was his last great movie. Here's my top 10: 10. Strangers on a Train 9. Dial M for Murder 8. The Birds 7. The Lady Vanishes 6. Shadow of a Doubt 5. The 39 Steps 4. Notorious 3. North by Northwest 2. Psycho 1. Rear Window

[@randolphpinkle4482]

I can watch North by Northwest and To Catch a Thief countless times because they are fun movies, almost comedies. I've never finished watching Vertigo or The Rear Window more than once because the tell is HUGE. Rope was just ridiculous. Psycho was boring but mostly for its theatricality. It was so unbelievable.

[@alnazemian]

Wow. The amount of research you did is incredible. I'm so glad that you gave Spellbound the credit it deserves, because it's one of my favorites and it is truly underrated. Ingrid Bergman gives one of her best performances, starting off as a cool, cerebral psychoanalyst and gradually softening up and showing an amazing range of emotions after she meets Gregory Peck (who is at his most appealing, natural and yet intense in this movie). I like your ranking a lot, with only one disagreement: The Lady Vanishes is in my Top 15 and it's my favorite early Hitchcock film. My parents love it too. I love it and prefer it to The 39 Steps, maybe because I love the British humor in The Lady Vanishes, combined with the assortment of truly eccentric characters. The scene where she writes the name of the lady who vanished on the train window (FROY) and then later when the name disappears is one of my favorite Hitchcock touches. Since I am not a fan of espionage or spy films, I don't LOVE Notorious and North by Northwest, ranking them below the hauntingly Romantic films like Vertigo, Rebecca and Spellbound. My other favorites are The Man Who Knew Too Much (remake), Rear Window, Strangers on a Train, Dial M for Murder, Rope, Psycho, The Birds, Shadow of a Doubt. I completely agree with you that Robert Cummings is a dull actor. He's fine and serviceable, but nothing beyond that- and I don't understand why he was so frequently cast as a leading man or romantic lead, when he wasn't particularly good looking (of course, this is subjective.) I'm VERY impressed with your list, but could you possibly watch The Lady Vanishes one more time, through a different lens: as a British comedy/suspense with Mrs. Froy (the old lady who vanishes) as the protagonist and a great character actress? I also love Sir Michael Redgrave, father of Lynn and Vanessa Redgrave, who is absolutely charming and hilarious in The Lady Vanishes. Thanks again for this INCREDIBLE list. I've only seen about 30-35 Hitchcock movies, so I will start watching more, according to your ranking!

[@maplestreetmovies]

Appreciate this comment so much! Loved hearing your thoughts on these movies and you really have me wanting to rewatch The Lady Vanishes again! Thank you for watching and for leaving such a well-thought-out comment.

Thank You for all the homework you did on possibly my favorite filmmaker of all time!@@maplestreetmovies

[@darrenkane2109]

I just wanted to show some appreciation for how well you've described everything that makes The Lady Vanishes so great. I'm a lot earlier in my Hitchcock journey, I've only seen 12 films so far, but I watched The Lady Vanishes for the first time today and was blown away! The whole cast was great, but Michael Redgrave stole the show. His performance in that film and Laurence Olivier's performance in Rebecca are I think the two most charming male lead performances I've ever seen. The movie has a fairly short runtime, but so much happens during that time without feeling rushed. Both the rom-com and thriller sides of the movie feel fully fleshed-out, and it feels sort of like I watched two movies in one. I also like that Hitch revealed that Mrs. Froy was a spy and not much else about her; I prefer mystery rather than over-explanations. There is such a warmth and charm to that film, and it's definitely one of my favorite Hitchcock films so far. Your taste seems very similar to mine, so now I'm really looking forward to seeing Spellbound and The Man Who Knew Too Much(1956) in the near future!

@@tfe1788 of course!! I think he’s totally guilty and a bad person! Hitchcock wanted to write him as a bad guy but the studio wouldn’t allow it for Cary Grant to be a villain. I think the hinting at the end is the closest we got.

[@Mustanaamio7]

Hitchcock is one of the most influential directors for me. His best films, like Vertigo and The Birds, always seem a little bit different when I watch them. I also like how he always experimented and even though he repeated certain themes a lot, all of his films are still somehow unique and they never feel repetetive. He has about 20 films that I could watch pretty much anytime, and even his weaker efforts have usually some interesting details.

[@TheEternalOuroboros]

Rope is my favourite Hitchcock.

[@isellBOTSbro]

Love your take on Strangers on a Train though. It’s my #1. That Tennis scene is incredible. I laughed so hard yet felt so uneasy.

[@clumsydad7158]

For me the tennis scene is too much, kind of like the 'que sera sera' song from the man who knew too much, it just gets a bit tedious... especially as some of the tennis play is pretty ridiculous. I guess it can be argued that Hitch was often a bit melodramatic ending his films. The last 20 min of Strangers just feels a bit off to me in general .

[@geoffreyedwards8227]

Shadow of a Doubt was Hitchcock`s favourite movie for a reason, because it was his best, and my favourite too.

[@elipacker3932]

True. The ending of Suspicion is not so clear and leave some events in the movie unsolved.

[@perkinscurry8665]

Generally a good list. I have a few quibbles such as I would have ranked Nortoious, Shadow of a Doubt, and Vertigo higher than your placement. However, I think you need to rethink your rankings of Frenzy, Topaz and Family Plot. Frenzy definitely needs to be in the top third, Topaz somewhere below the middle, and Family Plot near the bottom.

[@maplestreetmovies]

Thanks for watching! Maybe in rewatches my opinion will change on the latter 3. I think the first 3 are already high, but I wouldn’t even doubt those rising too!

[@ianharrison5958]

I think Frenzy is the last great Hitchcock and vastly under-rated. Yes, it's rated R, but all the great Hitch archetypes are there (the wrongly accused man on the run, the macabre mix of food and dread, the transfer of allegiance to the killer in the potato truck scene). The rape scene is uncomfortable, but it's supposed to be, and the camera angles are incredibly audacious. It resembles a film made by someone much younger and still on the cutting edge!

[@sbtechdif]

Great list. I think in Dial M for Murder everyone focuses on Ray Milland and Grace Kelly, and that's fair enough, but just giving a shout-out to Anthony Dawson who is great in the film and seems to be totally overlooked.

[@maplestreetmovies]

You’re so right!!

[@2msvalkyrie529]

Yes Dawson is usually overlooked but he is perfect here . And in Dr No....!

[@poetcomic1]

The 22 minute scene between Ray Milland and Dawson that takes place in one room and involves basically two men talking is a Hitchcock master class in cutting, framing, camera movement and Ray Milland should have won the Academy Award for it. Two men talking.... and you are on the edge of your seat the whole time.

[@TeresaBaileypolymath]

My.favorite action movie is "North by Northwest" and my favorite movie epiphany is in "Rope" where Jimmy Stewart's character realizes that he was wrong and every human life is meaningful. He actually is intellectually honest enough to realize that what he was teaching was wrong and they were wrong to act on it. I love HItchcock and my favorite is "Rear Window".

[@frederykbote351]

Great list. Absolutely agree with 'Rope' being in the top 3. I would see 'The Paradine Case' in a much better light. Maybe - as you said - it has no spectacular twist at the end, but I think it's one of the pychologically most distinguished Hitchcock-movies - f.e. how the main character (Gregory Peck) loses his abilitiy to be rational and righteous when he starts to feel attracted to the mysterious defendant (Alida Valli).

[@maplestreetmovies]

That’s a really good point! I’d like to rewatch it someday and see if my thoughts change.

I was curious, so I found the direct quote. It's mentioned on page 151 of the book: Truffaut: "I take it that of all the pictures you've made, Shadow of a Doubt is the one you prefer." Hitchcock: "I wouldn't say that Shadow of a Doubt is my favorite picture; if I've given that impression, it's probably because I feel that here is something that our friends, the plausibles and logicians, cannot complain about."

I saw a clip from Dick Cavett which I used to always watch. Alfred Hitchcock said his favorite movie was "Shadow of a Doubt" because it was true and how his family didn't suspect a thing.

It's almost impossible to definitively rank any group of creations against one another. At best, you list them on the day you sit down to do it, and then the next time you find you rate one you didn't like that much as higher this time, and others you think don't impress you as much this viewing, you'll find more watchable another time. These days, I tend to put them into 4 broad categories (I also apply these categories to TV series, books by a specific author, an artist's songs, comic books, videogames, etc), which are The Best, The Very Good, The Average, and The Poor. That way, you give yourself wriggle room to move them up or down a bit within the category or from one category to another depending on your mood at the time. Best Hitchcocks - which are always the ones that can be rewatched endlessly - would include Rear Window, The 39 Steps, North By Northwest, and The Lady Vanishes. I put none in the Poor category, because he always, at the very least, directed interesting films that are worth watching once. So, I'll take your roundup as what it felt like to you on the day of recording the video. I'd be interested to see you rate his cameo appearances against one another. That's probably easier to do. :-)
