RopeRope
Buy new: $16.49 / Used from: $9.99
Rope - Maybe my favorite Hitchcock film. Based on a play, it was filmed as one long scene with one camera that takes place in real time, entirely in an apartment. Jimmy Stewart's speech at the end is the highlight.

Psycho (Special Edition) (Universal Legacy Series)Psycho (Special Edition) (Universal Legacy Series)
Buy new: $20.99 / Used from: $12.30
Psycho - Classic Hitchcock horror film. It's more psychological and less gruesome than your more modern horror films.
FrenzyFrenzy
Buy new: $17.99 / Used from: $2.93
Frenzy - A little more gruesome than some of his other thrillers, this film has one of my favorite Hitchcock endings.

Marnie - A psychological movie about a compulsive thief.
Shadow of a DoubtShadow of a Doubt
Buy new: $16.49 / Used from: $8.92

Buy new: $26.99 / Used from: $15.00
SaboteurSaboteur
Buy new: $13.49 / Used from: $2.41
Saboteur - Not his best, but his use of silence during the climax makes it somewhat more memorable.
Young and InnocentYoung and Innocent
Buy new: $17.99 / Used from: $3.64
SuspicionSuspicion
Buy new: $5.79 / Used from: $5.50
Rumor has it that Hitchcock wanted the ending to be a little closer to the book on which it was based. The studios, apparently, would have none of it.
TopazTopaz
Buy new: $16.49 / Used from: $10.44
Topaz - One of my lesser favorites, but it does have Cubans with stereotypical Communist beards. What's not to like about that?
