Hitchcock Movies - Part 1 of Many


I will never forget the moment that I was hooked on old movies. And as strange as this may sound, I remember the exact moment and scene of the movie. I was watching "Rear Window" with James Stewart and Grace Kelly. It was the first scene they showed with the neighbor across the street, Mr. Thorwald, sitting alone in the dark smoking a cigarette and the only thing you could see was the glowing embers of the cigarette as he smoked. I was hooked from then on!! Old movies are one of my fave things in all the world.

Here is the list of Hitchcock movies I have seen thus far, so check them out:

The Man Who Knew Too Much (1934)
The Lady Vanishes (1938)
Jamaica Inn (1939) - I am pretty sure I saw this...didn't really find it interestingSuspicion
Saboteur (1942) - I think I own this, but haven't seen it yet
Shadow of a Doubt (1943) - Love this one!
