Sam and I had a blast watching this movie! Apologies for the delay, the video took an unusually long time to process before I was able to post! Thank you for all of the support and recommendations!

"Now you listen to me, I'm an advertising man, not a red herring. I've got a job, a secretary, a mother, two ex-wives and several bartenders that depend upon me, and I don't intend to disappoint them all by getting myself "slightly" killed" is still one of the best lines ever written.

There are 4 sections in this movie: 1) The hero doesn't know what 's going on, neither do we, the viewers. 2) We know what's going on (as told by the FBI man), but he still doesn't. 3) He also knows what's going on (as he's been told to continue play the "Kaplan" game), just as we do. 4) He plays a game of its own, but now we don't know where is going! (Maximum suspence!). As for the famous "middle of nowhere scene", 1) We WANT him to be in trouble (as he supposed to, even if he doesn't know that), so... 2) Hitch puts him, not in some dark alley, but in a place where no obvious danger can be spotted. 3) After a few "is that him/it?", we have our villain: it's the dusting plane - which was there all the time, but suddenly becomes "evil", materialising our desire! 4) Now we got our suspence, but we don't want our hero to die! The problem is, he's totaly defenceless in this environment! So, he 's saved by an extraordinary crash of the plane on the fuel truck! It's not very convincing or realistic, but it does the job: our hero is saved! What a master Hitch was!

Eve (Eva Marie Saint) is still alive and about to turn 98 on July 4th. Cary Grant was a legend. Phillip Vandamm (James Mason) was also a legendary actor,

You just have to watch another classic Hitchcock movie with Cary Grant "To Catch a Thief" It's pure gold, just like North by Northwest.

"We're going to have to look up what microfilm is." Now I'm feeling my age (ha ha!). This is a great movie. Check out "Arsenic and Old Lace" (1944) with Cary Grant and "Heaven Can Wait" (1978) with James Mason. Both are good comedies.

"Something wrong with your eyes?" "Yes, they're sensitive to questions." I love that line, lol. This was really fun to watch with you guys!

While the cornfield sequence in this movie is a filmmaking masterclass, no one looked better running on-screen than Cary Grant.

I’ve seen it when I was a child. I loved It. So iconic. And the music of Bernard Hermann is so great. It was my introduction to Hitchcock’s works. And I have seen all his films since.

"Pay the $2" was a saying which meant that sometimes accepting a penalty is better than fighting it. By the way, the very final shot of the movie was symbolic.

"Vertigo" is definitely worth watching. "Rebecca" is also an underappreciated gem.

The drunk driving thing is from another era when it was considered a very minor offense. Then came Mothers Against Drunk Driving in 1980 and in a few short years got it turned into a major offense. I remember so many people angrily and loudly complaining that they could drive perfectly well while drunk - better even. Automobile related deaths dropped by nine thousand a year as the campaign achieved success.

I'm so excited for your future viewings. Not only are there so many fantastic Hitchcock movies, but you haven't even scratched the surface of brilliant old/classic movies. Like this one, the greats have aged wonderfully. Still riveting for one reason or another to this day.

Fun little detail: At 29:16 you can see my favorite movie blooper of all time. Look at the little boy in the middle right side of the frame. In the unedited film, you can see him bring his fingers up to cover his ears. This was obviously not the first take of this shot and he didn't like how loud the gun was, so he did something about it before the gun was fired. One more kind of fun detail: The two final shots in the film were him pulling her up into bed and then a train going into a tunnel. In an interview, Hitchcock made it clear that final shot was a tongue-in-cheek sexual metaphor.

Bernard Herrmann wrote many of Hitchcock's classic scores, and is regarded as one of Hollywood's finest composers. Scorsese was thrilled to get him for Taxi Driver.

One movie I wouldn't want you to overlook is 1963's Charade (also with Cary Grant). It's not Hitchcock, but really feels like it could have been. Very fun and twisty. If you do a Cary Grant poll it should be on it. Also, fun fact: Cary Grant's real name was Archibald Leach. A name so bad, that John Cleese borrowed it for his character in the movie A Fish Called Wanda. (Another really good movie.)

The Philadelphia Story and His Girl Friday are some other great Cary Grant films you should check out. Great reaction as always!

I suggest "The Time Machine" from 1960!

Amazing masterpiece North by Northwest directed by Alfred Hitchcock starring Cary Grant, Eva Marie Saint, James Mason and Martin Landau. Thank you TBR Schmitt great reaction guys excellent😊👍👍👍👍

When I was a child I visited Mt. Rushmore and I remember being in the exact same visitor's area with those HUGE windows. I also remember that there was some talk between my parents about this was a location where a certain movie was shot. I didn't realize it was this movie until I saw it on TV as a young adult.

You guys should react to more Alfred Hitchcock films… "Vertigo", "The Birds", "Strangers on a Train", "Dial M for Murder", "To Catch a Thief", "Notorious", "Rebecca", "The Man Knew Too Much", "Rope", "Shadow of a Doubt" 🎥🍿

Hitchcock was so good. Even his earliest low budget movies in the end of the silent movie era were creative and innovative. Thank you Daniel and Samantha for reacting to North by Northwest! I think you'll enjoy the first "The 39 Steps", which Hitchcock made twice.

Cary Grant was completely lost on the plot of this movie while making it, and he was certain the movie would bomb, though it came out to great acclaim. (And his gray suit is an iconic piece of cinema history.)

I usually consider this my favorite Hitchcock film, but it could honestly be tied for 1st with at least 5 or 6 others. A few weeks ago, I got to see Cary Grant & Ingrid Bergman in Hitchcock's 1946 B&W film "Notorious" for the very first time in one of the GORGEOUS old movie palaces in downtown LA (aptly names the Los Angeles theater) which was a great treat, and famed movie critic Leonard Maltin interviewed Grant's daughter for about 10 minutes before the film. I was also lucky enough to see Cary Grant on a speaking tour he did around the country before he died where he talked about his life, working with Hitchcock, and his experiences with LSD. Also, because Hitch was a bit naughty (and in some instances, abusive and manipulative, sadly) the very last shot of the film of the train going into the tunnel was his way of implying that the actors were having sex, but doing it in a way to get around the censors.

Samantha: 🤣"I called it! You called her a b*tch!" TBR Schmitt: 😳"I would never say something like that!" That exchange at 28:39 had me rolling!

My Favorite Hitchcock movie This and the equally superb Charade (Also Grant and this time Audrey Hepburn led the way to the Bond films. See Charade if you like this. After hearing the end of this and how much you liked it CHARADE is really a must see. It is often sited as the best Hitchcock movie that he DIDN'T direct but it has so much the same pacing, humor, suspense and romance and you never guess the the plot twists ....

Hitch famously made cameos in a lot of his movies - my favorite is in "Lifeboat" which takes place almost completely in a rowboat. William Bendix is reading a newspaper and Hitch appears in a weight loss add - the "before" and "after" photos are both of him.

I was head over heels in love with Hitchcock after Birds, Psycho and North by Northwest but then I watched Vertigo. It shot up to my number 1 movie of all time.

I watch this at least once a year. Hitchcock pretty much created the prototype Bond movie. Did you pick up on Leonard being gay? Martin Landau suggested this, to add an extra dynamic into the relationship with Van Damme and Eve. Also - the metaphorical "train enters tunnel" ending is pure Hitchcock mischief.

Aaaah... "North by Northwest" with Cary Grant and the wonderful Eva Marie Saint... Full of fun and so enjoyable... Always a pleasure to see it.

My favorite of Hitchcock movies, I saw Cary Grant at a speaking event at SMU in Dallas in the early 80s or so, huge fan of his, thanks again for sharing your thoughts and reaction

super fun reaction. it's always great seeing people react to movies older than the godfather. it's a bit older hitchcock, but i really recommend shadow of a doubt, a thriller with joseph cotten that's remarkably dark for its time. and speaking of cotten: citizen kane, if you haven't already seen it.

Hopefully you react to the others on the classic poll! Duck Soup and Double Indemnity are favorites of mine. Also Cary Grant is great and Bringing up Baby with him and Katharine Hepburn is incredible!

Nice to see another classical film here. I know many of us have a natural tendency to avoid movies "before our time" but there really is a gold mine of worthwhile films in virtually every era of cinema whether they be known classics or hidden gems. Very impressed by the range of release years in your poll and look forward to seeing more like this along with the usual stuff.

strangers on a train, good film.

My fave hitchkok with Rear Window

Such a superb film, with so many iconic set pieces and with a fabulous score by legendary composer Bernard Herrmann. ETA You don't know what microfilm is? Lord, the younger generation have lost so much information. lol

Great movie. I think this movie inspired to make the James Bond movies. I think he was offered the role of James Bond before Sean Connery. If you want to see another great none Hitchcock movie with Carry Grant which is considered a Hitchcock movie that Hitchcock never made :) you should see Charade 1963. Also if you have seen allot of Hitchcock movies you should watch High Anxiety. Also another great movie with the guy who plays the bad guy here is Heaven Can Wait 1978.

LOVE THIS ONE!!!! fun movie to watch. Eva Marie Saint is gorgeous and Cary is the man, yo!

This was the classic 'mistaken identity' plot, it basically started here and Hitchcock already mastered it. And it was basically a Bond movie before James Bond became a thing. I'd like to separate the eras of cinema into double-decades by technologies: 1890-1910 Experimental era (George Meliés "Voyage dans la lune") 1910-1930 Silent era (Chaplin "Gold Rush", Lang "Metropolis", Murnau, etc.) 1930-1950 Talkies era (Hitchcock and the "Silver screen" age) 1950-1970 Technicolor era (The "Golden age", monumental movies like Ben Hur, Gone With The Wind, Lawrence of Arabia …) 1970-1990 Blockbusters era (new cameras & steadicam like "Bullitt", and special effect driven movies, Spielberg's "Jaws", Lucas "Star Wars", ) 1990-2010 Digital era (CGI "Jurassic Park", "Lord of the Rings", color grading "O Brother wee art thou", "Pleasantville") 2010- Streaming era (cinematic universe and superhero oversaturation while opening directly Video-on-demand …)

You should do Charade next. Thought to be the most Hitchcock-like movie that Hitchcock didn’t do.

This is probably my favorite Hitchcock film, it’s a split hair difference between this and Rear Window

1:54 Good. Everyone should do that in their lifetime. I've not so hardcore as to go back to the silent movies, but I have done sort of a binge of old-school stuff with the OG King Kong probably being the oldest one.

One thing to think about is how great Cary Grant’s suit is through all this. Hitchcock’s gimmick of appearing in all his films is quite fun. One of the best is the WWII film “Lifeboat.” The story is about survivors of a u-boat attack in the Atlantic. Hint: Hitchcock was not one of the survivors. James Mason was pretty controversial as an actor. He took the “Oxford Oath” prior to WWII and kept his word. The scene in the study when the drapes are closed, the room goes dark, the table lamp is turned on, the room is illuminated but Vandamm’s face is dark is pretty special. An innocent man, wrongfully accused is a major Hitchcock theme. The 39 Steps is pretty dated and others directors have liberally helped themselves to the techniques but it is worth seeing how the OG pulled it off.

Classic movie. Hope you two are having an great and awesome day ❤

A couple of good movies with James Mason in it are: Heaven Can Wait (with Warren Beatty) and The Verdict (with Paul Newman).

I love seeing how much you guys appreciate the classics. Especially how you don’t let certain dated aspects of the filmmaking (like rear projection for driving scenes) affect your appreciation of the movie. A lot of younger reaction channel hosts struggle with the pacing and different styles of acting, among other things, but you guys manage to connect with the films and appreciate the qualities these movies possess that have become altogether lacking in modern cinema. Writing and character were paramount and it’s typically on rich display in Hitchcock films, but certainly not specific to his films, in that era. You’ll find that most of the great, classic films have such wonderful, sharp dialogue and compelling characters right down to the bit parts. (A benefit of the old studio system and it’s contract players. There was a character actor for every type needed and every movie could be stocked with the perfect fit for even the smallest roles. These character actors would be as identifiable to audiences of the time, for a certain type of role, as Cary Grant and Jimmy Stewart would be in the lead.) That kind of craft has become something of a lost art. Movies just seemed smarter and classier back then. If you want another great Eva Marie Saint movie, I’d recommend “On the Waterfront”. Which will, of course, bring you to young Marlon Brando.

Cary Grant was one of the biggest stars of all time. He made a few films with Hitchcock including "To Catch a Thief". and yes, Hitch made cameo's in his films

My favorite Hitchcock film. This was a big influence on the early James Bond films. When they initially tried to make a Bond film based on an original script "Thunderball" (which Ian Fleming later turned into a novel) they asked Hitchcock to direct and asked Cary Grant to play Bond. Neither wanted to commit to more than one film and the project fell through (later to be resurrected by the producers of the Sean Connery films). The helicopter sequence in "From Russia With Love" was obviously inspired by the crop duster sequence in this film. Even Hitchcock commented on the similarities. Another good Hitchcock spy thriller is "The Saboteur". It also involves an ordinary man caught up in espionage and a climax involving a famous American landmark.

Just a few fun facts from Hitchcock's biography: Hitchcock first had the basic plot in his head for about 5 years before making it. He always wanted the climax to be on Mt. Rushmore and Cary Grant dangling from the nose of one of the President's. He had the working title of 'The Man in Lincoln's Nose' before changing to 'From a Northwesterly Direction' and finally the actual title. He was denied access to both the U.N. building and Mt. Rushmore due to concerns over the subject material. So he had both sets recreated at the MGM lot. To get the shot of Cary Grant walking into the U.N. building, Hitchcock hid in a truck while instructing his cinematographer how to shoot. That's real footage of Cary Grant walking up the steps in plaun view. It'd be like if George Clooney just up and walked up the steps in broad daylight with no crew around. There's a guy who does a double take in that scene and that's a real reaction to seeing one of the biggest stars out of nowhere. Although Vertigo is remembered as his greatest in the eyes of many film critics and audiences today, Hitchcock felt he'd been too serious in the subject matter and desperately wanted to do an escapist story to refresh himself. He was right to, as this was a box office hit almost immediately. 3 years before the 1st Bond movie even.

One of my favorite Hitchcock movies! Rope and Rebecca are my favorites! Worth a watch.

Glad you mentioned the look. It is wonderfully put together and carries a real signature of Golden Age studio films, how in every scene the colors surrounding Cary Grant, whether a room or outdoor location, compliment both his clothing and physical attributes. It is most noticeable for him with the grey color scheme but really the same care was given to Eva Marie Saint and James Mason who played the main villain. It's for the most part a lost art, now everything has to look "real" and ends up looking ordinary. Cary Grant and James Stewart were Hitchcock's go to leading men in the 40's and 50's each making four films with the Master, Grace Kelly held that distinction on the female side until she married Prince Rainier and became Her Serene Highness, Princess Grace. All the films the three of them made with him are among his best. I'd suggest the brilliant Notorious with Cary, Ingrid Bergman and Claude Rains as the next place to go.

this was fun thanks guys!!

This one is just so much fun from start to finish. This has been a lifelong favourite of mine. That crop-dusting scene is probably one of the most well known examples of classic Hollywood cinema. Such fun. Sidenote - Back when I was in highschool and Internet was a pretty new thing my library still had microfilm readers. It was exactly what you described it as, a little reel of 16 or 35mm film and it would have copies of newspapers, photographs, documents, you name it.... Also microfiche, same thing on flat sheets of film. Libraries had machines you could sit at and scroll through. Research papers used to take sooooo long.

You should have included The Maltese Falcon in your golden age poll. It's fantastic and it never gets old.

While brainstorming, Hitchcock told screenwriter Ernest Lehman he wanted the villains to attack Thornhill in the middle of nowhere with a tornado. The crop duster was his response.

The "I never discuss love on an empty stomach" line was dubbed due to censorship. It was originally "I never make love on an empty stomach." Which makes the follow-up line even better.

If you like this, two suggestions: *'The Trouble with Harry'* directed by Hitchcock, and if you want one with Cary Grant in it and directed by Frank Capra, *'Arsenic and Old Lace'* . Both are classics, for good reason! You guys would love them both.

Thanks for reacting to North by Northwest. One of my all time favorites!

One if my earliest favorite movies! Carry Grant is such a classic charming presence. I love him in Charade with Audry Hepburn.

My favourite Hitchcock movie! I was lucky enough to see it my first time on one of Montreal's biggest screens, in the mid-1980s. Oh! That creamy Technicolor look, so smooth and rich!

North by Northwest is often listed among the greatest films of all time. It was selected in 1995 for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". After its first screening, reviewers for The New Yorker and The New York Times immediately hailed it as a "masterpiece of comedic, sophisticated self-parody" (Wikipedia). Cary Grant was one of the great leading men from the 1930s to the 1960s; he won a Lifetime Achievement Academy Award, and is one of 20 actors ("Legends of Hollywood") commemorated on a US postage stamp. I recommend you submit to your patrons "Ben Hur"- one of the greatest Hollywood films of all time (Charlton Heston). So glad that you are open minded to view and enjoy classic films from the past; many of them stand the test of time.

You can never go wrong with Hitchcock. One of those few directors who has a literal catalog of great films. If you two are looking for another poll to do then try having one for Billy Wilder, one of the greatest writer/directors ever. Here's a list of some of his greats: "Double Indemnity" (1944), "Sunset Blvd" (1950), "Stalag 17" (1953), "Witness For The Prosecution" (1957), "Some Like It Hot" (1959), and "The Apartment" (1960).

You would love the movie "Laura". It's not an Afred Hitchcock movie but was directed by Otto Preminger, another famous director. It stars Dana Andrews, Jean Tierney, Clifton Webb, with Vincent Price (of horror movie fame) as a playboy. The theme song is haunting beautiful.

Leonard was played by Martin Landau, who is probably most famous for the Mission: Impossible TV show in the 60s. He was also the father of Juliet Landau, who was Druscilla in Buffy the Vampire Slayer and looks almost exactly like her dad.

29:15 One of the most famous goofs in Hollywood history: The boy on the right edge of the screen is covering his ears in anticipation of the bang.

The man playing Leonard is the great Martin Landau. He played Bela Lugosi in Ed Wood and earned an Oscar for it!

Thank you for watching older movies like this! Some channels refuse to do movies before the 60s saying no one wants to watch them and it makes me sad. Sure not every older movie is great especially when you expect them to look visually like the all CGI all digital films of today but we shouldn't discard them as no longer valuable. Plenty of them are still extremely fun to watch and I'm glad when people give them a chance rather than just dismissing them out of hand because they're old.

Probably my favorite Hitchcock film. Awesome in every respect.

This movie was a huge influence on the the style of the second James Bond movie From Russia With Love from 1963. The actor playing the FBI guy (aka The Professor) was Leo G. Carroll and went on to play Alexander Waverly in 60's spy series The Man From U.N.C.L.E., the head of the U.N.C.L.E. organisation. And the actor playing Leonard was Martin Landau who became a regular character in the first few seasons of the original Mission Impossible TV series. So this film has quite a strong connection and influence over the whole 60's spy genre. Really loved your reaction. As always, the analysis after the movie is a real highlight of these videos.

My dad was a taxi driver in Chicago for several years and he absolutely had the occasional passenger asking him to lose people who were following them. He got good at it too! (Great reaction, guys. I've never seen anyone react to this one! So glad to have found your channel :D)

Did you notice at 27:34 When they car made the “turn” to the left, Grant had to poke the cop in the ribs to get him to lean over as if they were going around a corner?

Y’all should check out Ben-Hur & Spartacus, To Catch A Thief

James Mason as Phillip Vandamm was amazing. A great Hitchcock film if you want to watch another one is Strangers on a Train.

The opening scene is Alfred having the bus door slammed in his face......AWESOME!!!

Legendary classic!!!!! Eva Marie Saint!!!!!!!!

I'll just leave this here. Humphrey Bogart.. The Big Sleep.

I'm so glad you picked this as your next Hitchcock film. It's my personal favorite, and definitely the most "fun" movie he made. NXNW basically build the spy movie template that James Bond movies would copy a few years later. Watching you two react to it made me feel like I was watching it again for the first time. It was a joy to watch you enjoy it. Another fun fact: In the scene where Eve shoots Thornhill at Mt. Rushmore, just before it happens you can see a kid behind her holding his ears, because he knows what's coming!

Sam said "This looks like a painting" at the UN building shot because it is, in fact, a painted shot.

This is probably my favorite Hitchcock film. I love it and have seen it a number of times. I'm glad you both really enjoyed it. Fun fact: In the cafeteria scene where Eve "shoots" Roger, watch the little boy in the background. He plugs his ears before she shoots. And yes, unfortunately that gorgeous house on the top of Mount Rushmore doesn't really exist.

Cary Grant awesome as always and Eva Marie Saint as the ultimate femme fatale. Nice turns by James Mason and Matin Landau. And solid character turns by Leo Carroll and Jessie Landis. This is also so stylish and iconic as it travels across America from NY to Chicago to the midwest, to Mount Rushmore.

Cary Grant and his Co star taught a master class in "flirtation " on the train. They were saying "everything " and at the same time saying nothing vulgar. Eve was an excellent character. She was mature and sophisticated and very confident, which all made her very sexy! Great reaction, to a great Hitchcock film.

This is a perfect movie! Bernard Hermann did the score. Cary Grant and Eva Marie Saint, and James Mason, and Martin Landau! The script, the camera work. It's an action, comedy, thriller. The handsomest man on the screen. And the crop duster scene is legendary. (We studied this in film class.)

The combination of sophistication and wit you mentioned is a feature of most Cary Grant films. It was something he played particularly well. He was a shockingly handsome man who didn't take himself very seriously. A rare combination.

Great reaction! idk why but since im working on movies/series/audio projects myself and having released one recently seeing people react to other kind of cinematography art just gives me so much inspiration!

My second favorite Hitchcock after Vertigo. The James Bond filmmakers owe a lot to this film. Very saucy dialogue for 1959 btw. Okay guys...see Vertigo next!

Fun fact - Jessie Royce Landis, who played Grant's mom was just 8 years older.

This film feels really fresh for 1959, set up so many tropes of the spy-action-thriller genre and various blockbusters for decades afterward!

I am sure you'd also love Casablana, which turns 80 this year, as it was released in 1942, but has a similarly witty and sarcastic lead character (who also has trouble with a woman).

People say jaws was the start of the blockbuster era but i feel Hitchcock was doing blockbusters even before this film.. I think films like suspicion. And David lean’s Lawrence of Arabia were blockbusters

I love watching people really get into a movie like you guys did!

The overall arc of this story is Roger's transformation from a wholly selfish, callous SOB to a compassionate, even patriotic hero. It is a parable, if you will, about how anyone can become better, and become part of something larger than themselves. The title of the film comes from Hamlet: "I am but mad north-northwest; when the wind is in the south, I can tell a hawk from a handsaw."

Please watch SHORT CIRCUIT (1986)! It's one of my favorite childhood movies!

Alfred Hitchcock at his suspenseful best. It's hard me to choose a particular scene. I guess when Mr. Townsend gets murdered. Especially when Roger Thornhill stands up and immediately gets photographed holding the knife. It's so outrageous. At 12:58 of your video, y'all question 'who is the agent?'. That's what makes Alfred Hitchcock movies so great. We all want to know who the agent is! And at 20:20 of your video, is a Greyhound Super Scenic Cruiser. One of my fondest memories is riding one of those buses. I think were I to suggest a classic movie to react to, it would be: "Charade" or "My Fair Lady" both of those are movies of which I have lost count of how many times I've watched them.

This movie was so influential, one of first "modern" thrillers with tropes it set and were used in decades to come. Cary Grant was also one of the biggest stars in Hollywood at the time, his thing was this kind of smooth and witty funny and goofy version of James Bond. These type of stars don't exist anymore similar to a genre of movies like this. Closest we have today is George Clooney, he is like Cary Grant lite (without the humor). By now you can see a pattern in Hitchcock movies, they always have certain elements like- a platinum blonde, a coincidence, chance an unexpected event as a primal mover of plot in a strange direction and some form of perverse psychological sub context- paranoia, voyeurism, Oedipus complex..etc. Roman Polanski made in late 80s movie called Frantic, that is in a way an homage to Hitchcock type of a movie. Something you might want to check out in the future.

I love how you both hang out and talk about the films afterwards. It really sets your videos apart from other react videos, and it's really nice to hear your perspective on these old, classic films. So happy you young 'uns appreciate and enjoy them!

Movies of Hitchcock really worth watching: The 39 steps (His best of his early British period) Shadow of a doubt (his favorite of his movies) Notorious Strangers on a train Rope Rebecca (based on the novel by Daphne DuMaurier and won the Oscar for best picture) Dial M for Murder The man who knew too much (the 1956 version) Vertigo The Birds (also based on a novel by Daphne DuMaurier) Also if you could do my favorite Kubrick film Paths of Glory

TBR and Samantha, the only other Hitch classics you need to react to are 'Dial M For Murder', 'Vertigo', 'Strangers On A Train' 'Rope' and 'Notorious.' But really most of them are worth seeing.

"Strangers on a Train" and "Notorious" are GREAT!

I think it is the movie with the best rhythm, more movement in history, it does not stop!. very entertaining.
