Marnie (1964)

The Birds sucked. The first two Hitchcock films were great. Let's hope this one is more like the first two. It stars Tippi Hedren and Sean Connery.

Well this wasn't very good either.

These last two films lead me to believe that Hitchcock has seen better days. Perhaps by the 1960s he lost his touch.

The plot wasn't all that great. It was more realistic than The Birds but I just couldn't get into it. On paper it sounded okay and started out interesting, but there really wasn't enough to it to keep me interested. This film's saving grace is the ending. The last 10 minutes are top-notch and that allows this one to move ahead of The Birds

UP NEXT: Psycho. I'm going to take a shower before, not after, watching this. Actually, I'm not going to watch this today. It is being recorded on my DVR. If this is any good I'll watch Topaz and Torn Curtain as well. If not, I might just skip those two and concentrate on older Hitchock films.

I'm about to watch this, so I'm bumping it up so I can find it easier when I score it.

Ryan didn't favor it.

I'm anxious to see how you review it!

I just watched this...

Well, this movie was...rather odd. The last 10 minutes explained everything but it felt like it took forever to get there. Catbox was right, it wasn't very realistic and the plot wasn't that good. At 130 minutes I'm convinced that this movie is too long and it would've been better if parts would've been cut short or eliminated altogether as this movie seemed to drag on forever.

69/100
