Marnie is the best graduate-level Hitchcock. Almost want to say save it for last.
― Milm & Foovies (Eric H.), Thursday, 25 November 2021 16:26 (two years ago) link
If you're not quite as enamored of Hitchcock as others, you might want to read Kael first ("Hitchcock scraping bottom").
― clemenza, Thursday, 25 November 2021 18:44 (two years ago) link
I can't think of many reasons beyond Hitchcock completism why Torn Curtain or Family Plot would be worth your time.
― Les hommes de bonbons (cryptosicko), Thursday, 25 November 2021 18:57 (two years ago) link
The Trouble With Harry is rather daft but still worth watching, Edmund Gwenn is ace in it.
― calzino, Thursday, 25 November 2021 19:08 (two years ago) link
Yeah, I don't know if that one quite works, but it is an interesting failure at least.
― Les hommes de bonbons (cryptosicko), Thursday, 25 November 2021 19:11 (two years ago) link
don't watch marnie until you've seen spellbound and under capricorn, at the very least. there are some abstract associations in marnie and you can probably figure out what hitch is trying to do by watching those two.
torn curtain is a fine hollywood star vehicle

I like Family Plot. Sort of cute, sort of pathetic, touching way to go out.

Agreed.

Same here. Also agreed on Lifeboat, even if it is kinda agitprop.

xp That'll be one of the featured collections, I'm sure. BTW, I'm guessing Kubrick's Killer's Kiss will be on the channel as well, as a supplement for The Killing, since it's included on the physical release.

"the ghost and mrs. muir" is a weird cultural relic. a woman has a love affair with the ghost of a sea captain. not a metaphor for anything.

Looks like the other 2021 Ryusuke Hamaguchi will reach me first.
Is The Hawks and the Sparrows worth a watch?

Guru Dutt? My prayers have been answered! Maybe too late though.

watched Hamaguchi's Asako I & II on the Criterion Channel since it will be discontinued at the end of April. It is a lovely film
"what a filthy river"

need to do that as well. That and Happy Hour too I think. Also the Iranian film The Separation.

Happy Hour is 5 1/2 hours long, I have it on 2 dvds, watched it in segments, really loved it
A Separation is fantastic and also worth watching

Thanks. Asako I & II is also on MUBI with no hint of it going away (although maybe the alert will happen in a few days who knows) so maybe I should finally sit down and watch Happy Hour first.
