|
A tale of pirates that was said to have been done by Hitchcock as a favor for actor Charles Laughton. Not great. |
|
Hitchcock
at his absolute best. Brisk, breezy and suspenseful. Miss Froy vanishes
--some say she was never there!
|
|
Lighthearted suspense with an innocent man on the run. Hitchcock, but with a sweetness that may surprise. |
|
Dark and exquisite. A saboteur is at work in London. He runs a local cinema. He's not really a bad guy --or is he? |
|
Before James Bond, the British Empire had Richard Ashenden. WW I tale of espionage and emotions. |
|
Richard Hannay invites home the wrong girl and is up to his neck in espionage --and (of course) wanted for a murder he didn't commit. Four Stars! |
|
A
genuine classic! The suspense story was so good, Hitchcock filmed it
twice. Peter Lorre is deliciously bad.
|
|
Johann Strauss composes the Blue Danube Waltz.
(Not one of Hitchcock's favorites.)
|
|
Original
story by Hitchcock's wife follows a married couple from London to the
Orient and back again --but why?
|
|
A
"Spooky Old House" story leads to a slam-bang race between
a steam train and a passenger bus. Good fun!
|
|
Actress
Jill Esmond is the reason to see this adaptation of a John Galsworthy
play filmed by Mr. Hitchcock.
|
|
Who-done-it set in the lesser ranks of the British theater. Hitchcock tries his best to get the better of some bad acting. |
|
Comedy/Drama
about a poor Irish family that comes into an unexpected inheritance.
Faithful play adaptation.
|
|
A
compilation of nineteen musical and comedy sketches. Hitchcock contributed
a segment.
|
|
Hitchcock's
(and Britain's) first full-length talking picture; his first thriller
since The Lodger. Featuring Anny Ondra.
