Top 10 Hitchcock Films

[@matthewbissonnette4949]

I like Hitchcock's bomb theory. You can do a bomb scene in two ways. One is you have two men sitting at a table talking about baseball for five minutes when a bomb under the table explodes and the audience has a brief, horrible shock. Or you let the audience know there is a bomb under the table when the scene starts so during the five minutes the audience will be yelling, "stop talking about baseball you a-holes, there is a bomb under the table!" That is how you create suspense.

[@samiramraniamrani6886]

It's principaly an inspiration from orson welles methodology

[@davidpomeroy7594]

Matthew Bissonnette Hitchcock would choose the latter.

[@Newton14alan]

@Sammy R.--- That single-shot opening is one of the most impressively choreographed scenes in motion picture history...and many people don't even notice it. Also the opening shot from, "The Player" is something to appreciate as well.

[@thewenhacker]

I know you will probably never read this, but would you ever consider doing a top 10 Stanley Kubrick movies?

[@4thcoming]

Great list James, btw.

[@runlarryrun77]

Great list but my personal favourite didn't get a mention. Marnie.

[@allegra0]

A masterpiece.

[@richarddobson3138]

Psycho was his biggest hit, biggest money maker, and he did it almost entirely on his own without the studios support. However my top 5 are 1. Rear Window 2. Psycho 3. Dial M for Murder 4. The Birds 5. Frenzy

[@Dennzyl]

i just realised that some of the 2000's movies are based on Hitchcock's work... dammnn!

[@colliric]

Let me guess, Suburbia?

[@SquidGunman]

I think Psycho is the best Hitchcock movie.

[@TomahawkTom]

I'm not sure whether or not i read this while i was taking a massive morning shit, or i saw this on a previous Cinemassacre vid, but Hitchcock used to refer to the actors / actresses as "cattle".

[@BrendanJSmith]

He denies ever saying that. What he meant was actors should be TREATED like cattle.

[@helgaratbone1691]

Notorious would make my list. Frenzy is a personal fav. Foreign corespondent might make my list.

[@thecoolj45221]

NOTORIOUS, ISN'T ON THIS LIST, I'M PISSED, THAT IS HIS BEST MOVIE

[@colinswain9235]

+Jacob Lenhoff Yeah. Especially that ending. Very satisfying.

[@devilzdandruff9199]

To me... Psycho, Dial M for Murder, Rear Window, Strangers on a Train and Vertigo are all at least slightly better than Notorious. Notorious is a very good film though.

[@Seekarr]

Notorious is his best shot film.

[@filmjunkie975]

Rear Window is the best imo. 66 years and its still as nail-biting as ever.

[@ellnats]

psycho should be #1

[@mistertagomago7974]

Vertigo was better.

[@mistertagomago7974]

@@9xxxmusicxxx9 okay then

[@benfrey6598]

Start with shadow of a doubt it's dark at some points, and really introduces you to the way Hitchcock makes films.

[@Aleksandr920907]

You can see how James reads the lines at the bottom right corner.

[@GuitarHeroPhenomSux]

That's like all of his movies. My top five would be: A Clockwork Orange, Dr. Strangelove, The Shining, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Paths of Glory. Eyes Wide Shut and Full Metal Jacket would come next. Of Kubrick's *other* films, I wanna say: The Killing, Barry Lyndon, Lolita, Sparticus, and Killer's Kiss. I enjoyed Fear and Desire albeit Kubrick said it was his biggest regret as a filmmaker.

[@maxtheaxeiswax]

There was one thing about Vertigo that made it hard for me to understand James Stewart's character. It's that when you think about it, he really isn't in love with Kim Novak's character. He just finds her incredibly attractive. Maybe I just don't understand, but that's what I think. I found it very difficult to understand the whole obsession thing that James Stewart has with Kim Novak. I never found myself feeling for him. It's a gem of a film, but I don't understand the romance in it.

[@LegendoftheAce1]

Rebecca and spellbound deserve honorable mentions

[@Wind_Falcon]

Vertigo and Rear Window are tied for my No.1 spot.

[@cubturbo]

Just got a 20 film compilation dvd today, thought it'd be a great place to start. Unfortunately it's missing the classics like Psycho, Rear Window, and Vertigo.

[@TheWeeCrafter]

Rear Window has to be my favorite. When I first saw, I couldn't even comprehend my emotions: I was in bigger suspense that moment that in most of my life. And for that, Rear Window deserves a place in my heart.

[@Aprilfool3333]

[@AAYLV]

Absolutely

[@johnreddick7650]

I think people think of it just as much as a Selznick film as a Hitchcock film, which leads to people underrating Hitch's contribution. Personally, I think the fact that he made the film so much his own even with Selznick constantly interfering shows his genius even more: „In der Beschränkung zeigt sich erst der Meister.“

[@subversivelysurreal3645]

Christopher : Mine too. Daphné DuMaurier really treated Hitchcock well. I also love Marnie. Call it corny, but I probably liked a woman criminal. I definitely like their relationship. Probably because I am a woman.

[@subversivelysurreal3645]

[@Syklonus]

The Birds is fascinating becasue it has no music whatsoever. It's good for budding composers as it's basically a clean slate in which to practise.

[@ks4isu]

Even without music, Hitchcock finds ways to convey suspense and shock. And Mrs. Bundy is my favorite minor character ever.

[@demetriouslara9533]

The 39 Steps is really underrated. It’s probably one of Hitch’s best British films.

[@BenCol]

According to the British Film Institute, it’s the 4th best British film ever made. I’d hardly call that ‘underrated’ myself.

[@Syklonus]

I don't like using the word "best" to describe movies. Film is subjective, so there can be no "best" or "worst" - only "favourite". Popularity is not a measure of quality either.

[@ByzantineCalvinist]

But it has little to do with John Buchan's novel of the same name.

Great list! Frenzy, Rebecca, Notorious, and The 39 Steps are also absolute MUST-SEES. Frenzy and The 39 Steps are perfect for those who love Innocent Man Accused thrillers (Frenzy feels very modernand fresh to this day while 39 Steps is the choice for those who like b&w classic).

My favorite Hitchcock is 'The Lady Vanishes', from back in his Islington days, with Margaret Lockwood and Michael Redgrave. The Intrigue is rife in that one.

[@shenloken2]

I need to watch 'North by Northwest' again because all I remember after the famous Mt Rushmore scene was the movie jump cutting to the VERY brief ending where the hero and heroine share four lines of romantic dialogue before cutting to the classic suggestive shot of a train entering a tunnel. Then "The End." And I was like...."What?"

[@zborgerd]

I agree. I think that Notorious is probably one of my favorite Hitchcock films. It seems to have better writing, directing, and camera work. I think that it doesn't get quite high marks as Vertigo simply because it lacks some of the crazy plot twists of a typical Hitchcock classic, and it's probably one of Cary Grant's weaker Hitchcock films. Ingrid Bergman is amazing and gorgeous, and Claude Raines is outstanding. He really makes the film as far as acting is concerned.

It amazes me how Hitchcock could go so deep into the twisted recesses of the human mind within the constraints of the time period in which he worked. Although he is the master of suspense, he literally worked in every genre and even created a few. Aside from the psycho 'slasher genre' I think one could make an argument for the 39 steps being the first wisecracking buddy thriller (even though his partner is a 'dame'). The way Rope incoporated latant homosexual themes was also revolutionary.
