Psycho and N x NW are two of my all time favorites. I gave Strangers (which I liked alot more the second time) the #3 spot, but Murder and The Birds are worthy of it too.

Dude, I officially recommend Rear Window, North by Northwest, Rope, and Dial M for Murder. I think you would enjoy these four (and they're my favourite four), but I would just love to know your opinion on them from what seems like a rare breed; the Hitchcock virgin.

I'm at 19% - 10/53 of his films. It is a goal of mine to watch more, but maybe not all - some are just not appealing to me. I have Marnie, Rebecca, The Wrong Man, and Suspicion ready to watch next, and I'm not really interested in Torn Curtain and Topaz. I'm happy with my progress so far. I started watching To Catch a Thief a few years ago but the stream died, and I've not been able to get it since.

The Lodger is quite accessible for a 90 year old silent movie, clearly demonstrating the potential that would soon bloom in the young director, and also The Trouble With Harry is a woefully underwatched movie that features Hitchcock's own special brand of black comedy.

Oh my. I couldn't even contemplate watching a film on YouTube. Streaming is the single worst thing that the Internet has given us. I value film much higher. I download or go to the cinema. Thanks for the idea, though (and links) for if I ever get desperate and need to catch those two to complete the Hitch 53.
