    I got to see The Birds and North by Northwest on the big screen in last few years. The Birds I always remembered loving as a kid. It might feel a little slow. I still like it but not sure it holds up as well. I’ve actually been to Bodega Bay where it’s set.

      @@STEVEHEROLD you’ve seen way more locations than I have, I need to travel more.
      The sfx of The Birds are a product of their time and I usually appreciate old movies for what they are, like King Kong. I’m glad that I’m finally diving into his filmography

    Vertigo next. I remember enjoying Foreign Correspondent quite a bit.

    I enjoyed this video! Some of Hitchcock's films are some of my favorites of all time. Just recently watched his silent "The Lodger" and quite enjoyed it. My absolute favorite is Rear Window.

      Thank you so much. Yes, I just watched Vertigo on Sunday and really enjoyed it.

    I have that set as well. Great set. Got it on sale during one of the Prime Day sales. Have checked out a couple titles from the set. Enjoyed everything in the set I've watched. I want to get that Notorious Criterion Blu-Ray. Definitely on the hunt for that one. I haven't checked out Vertigo or The Birds yet. Have only seen 1 or 2 titles like you. Hopefully get some more watched this year.

      @@physicalmediaman yes, Notorious is a must own in the Criterion Collection, Cary Grant was movie star in his day.
      Yes, I would highly recommend Rear Window if you haven’t seen it yet. North By Northwest plays like a James Bond movie and it’s great too.

    Vertigo is my favourite Hitchcock film.
    You also need to see Strangers on a Train, that has the best Hitchcock villain and the most exciting climax
    I love all the Hitchcock films in the Criterion Collection, except Spellbound which I don't think has aged very well (although I think that is a minority opinion, so feel free to ignore it)
    Two other Hitchcock films I really like are Sabotage and Lifeboat, these are the two most underrated Hitchcocks
    You have a great journey ahead of you my friend !
