Pyscho, for me. Like the 39 Steps too. I have not seen it in years. Must try and watch it again soon. It is like some dim memory these days.

He did some fabulous films. I still watch his old TV show occasionally at night. Saw one with David McCullum last night in it.
He was "The Man From Uncle's" off-sider in that TV show.

Ah, two classics! Nice job!


I've voted for Rear Window - why later - but first I had to share this, in part because I didn't make it large enough in the collage, in part because it's fascinating:



If you've ever seen Marnie - you'll know that this poster misrepresents the film big time. It's so, so very un-Bond.
A Pakistani poster I believe.  Though you can see why anyone would chose to use Connery's Bond fame to sell a film, especially as Marnie wasn't (at the time) as well received as his other works.

(apologies on the size)

Voted "North by Northwest"which I enjoyed most
I think the problem with a lot of the fusion music is that it's extremely predictable, it's a rock rhythm and the solos all play the same stuff and they play it over and over again ...

Not synonymous with your 'favourite' Hitch film, but rather, what's his best work in your opinion? Any thoughts on why would be ace too.  It's a fairly big list actually - probably too big. Oh well.

I've listed them above in whatever order they came to mind - and did, of course, include an 'Other' option. I've also mostly omitted his earlier British work due to my own bias. But then, that's what the 'Other' option is for Wink

Forgot 'To Catch a Thief' damnit
