Need an answer - what other Hitchcock title to get, aside from `Psycho`?

RWB (Elite) posted this on Wednesday, 6th August 2003, 17:32

Play.com are doing a special deal: 2 Hitchcock DVDs for £20 - the special edition, newly-released versions. I am thinking of getting `Psycho`, but need obviously to get another. (I already have `North by Northwest`, as well.)

I have heard good things about `Vertigo` and `Rear Window` - anyone care to add anything?

I have some money set aside, yeah, but I won`t get DVDs out there - not a fan of R1.

One time my cousin Walter got this cat stuck in his ass. True story. He bought it at the local mall, so the whole fiasco wound up on the news. It was embarassing for my relatives and all. But the next week, he did it again. Different cat, same results, complete with a trip to the emergency room. Then, last week, I saw him in the pet store. He was buying another cat! I said, "Walt, what the hell are you doing, you know you`re just gonna get this cat stuck up your ass too, why don`t you knock it off?" And he says to me, "Brodie, how the hell else am I supposed to get the gerbil out?" My cousin was a weird guy !

I know there are two versions of `The 39 Steps` - I have seen one of them, and I think it was in colour. Is that the one you are referring to? What is the appeal of `Rope`?

Hitchcock`s 39 Steps isn`t in colour, other people did the remakes.

Rear Window`s my fave.

It`s very good for tying people up with...
BW 39 Steps is Robert Donat directed by Hitch in 1935-before my bedtime i think :)

Crunch time: `Rear Window` or `Vertigo`, and why?

Rear Window because, well, without getting too technical, it`s better!
