    Hitchcock,fantastic director as were so many other directors of the older movies from the 1930s-70s.Hitchcock had more talent in his index finger than any of the modern directors have in their whole bodies.Almost every film he made is worth viewing.He also had a great tv show-Alfred Hitchcock Presents.

    I think, Vertigo was the greatest, Hitchcock film. It's almost like tripping with DXM...
    Birds, was another masterpiece, ecxpesially the directing of that film! WOW!

    Vertigo is my favorite! It's incredible. The first time I watched it, I had to turn around and watch it again!

    He's fantastic. 'The Hitchcock Hour' is perhaps the most fantastic show... ever. :)

    I love Psycho. I wish I was alive when it first came out because it was so revolutionary. Vertigo and North by Northwest are a close second.

    Probably 'The Greatest'...if there is such a thing...
    Despite the brilliance of Psycho, North By Northwest, Vertigo and Rear Window, I keep going back to The Birds.

    Just saw Foreign Correspondent! George Sanders is one of my top 10 actors.
    It's not talked about much but it's a classic.

    I'm a newbie to the Hitchcock fan club. Rear Window and Psycho are my favorites thus far.

    Hell yes! Love George Sanders, who is a very underrated actor (despite the well-deserved Academy Award for "All About Eve"---seriously, who even knows/remembers that he won for that?) and Foreign Correspondent is certainly an underrated film.

    Rear Window is my all-time favorite Hitchcock. Love his work.

    I know it's the film forum, but does anyone have any favorite Alfred Hitchcock Presents? I'd pick 'Lamb to the Slaughter' and 'Back for Christmas' (starring John Williams).

    There's a few of his that I have yet to see, but Rear Window currently tops my list.

    I have a love for both Notorious and Rebecca as well. I think The Wrong Man is underrated, as I generally don't see it come up much when Hitchcock is talked about.

    I love Hitch, and no movie comes close to Psycho. I also like Frenzy, which is not as well known but very good and suspenseful.

    I like most of his movies, but favs are Rebecca, Marnie, one of his most underrated films, I find. Suspicion, could have had a better ending, but the rest was good, and well, Cary Grant! Rope, freaky concept! The 39 Steps, Strangers on a Train, The Lady Vanishes, The Birds scared me as a child, so it's always stuck with me, Rear Window, a little slow but very interesting seeing all the different people's lives. I like when they have the Hitchcock marathons. I love settling in for a day of Hitch viewing.
