A few weeks ago, Prairie and I watched Alfred Hitchcock’s Rear Window, and tonight I watched North by Northwest.
Man I’m bummed I didn’t discover Hitchcock earlier.
That’s not to say I’m a complete neophyte — I’ve seen Psycho, Vertigo and The Birds in the past, and some time ago a reader was kind enough to send me a copy of a recent (and very good)
Hitchcock biography, but really, I hadn’t seen much of anything of his oeuvre. After reading the biography, though, I went through and added every Hitchcock film that Netflix had available to my queue, and now they’re starting to filter in. This is going to be fun.
