who else likes his movies?
i love them... we just finished studying him in film studies, we watched part of Phsyco and The Birds. and then watched all of Vertigo. Vertigo is a crazy, twisted, but good movie! the ending is really suspensful!

one of the most celebrated directors of our time, and he never won an Oscar.  His films are one of a kind, I've always loved his style, which was ever changing to say the least.  
My Favorites:
Notorious, Shadow of a Doubt, Stage Fright, Rear Window, The 39 Steps, Strangers on a Train, LifeBoat, Spellbound, Marnie, Dial M for Murder, Psycho, The Trouble With Harry
It is a crime to kill a neighbor, and an act of heroism to kill an enemy.  But who is an enemy and who is a neighbor is purely a matter of social definition.  - E.R. Leach
