For Christmas, I got a great set of Alfred Hitchcock films, what I would consider to be his five best: Vertigo, Psycho, The Birds, Rear Window, and North by Northwest. But of course, everyone knows these films. (If you don’t, you’ve got some watching to do!) After you’ve seen them, what next? This is what I would consider to be the next top 5 Hitchcock films:
- Rope
- The Trouble with Harry
- Notorious
- Shadow of a Doubt
- Strangers on a Train
By the way, 2012 is the year that Vertigo knocked off Citizen Kane as the number-one movie of all time. We’re currently rewatching Vertigo, but it’s hard to beat this classic scene from North by Northwest:
