“Mr. and Mrs. Smith” is such a wonderful film, I wish more people would see it. Whenever people think I’m talking about the Brangelina version I get a little bit depressed. Admittedly their spy games were fun to watch, but they were nowhere near as cleverly and wittily written as the dialogue between the 1941 couple. It’s a hidden gem of a movie. What surprised me is that I didn’t realise that it was a Hitchcock film to this day. It’s very different from his other films. Ha ha

In reply to ElaineofAstolat. Those are also really great movies which showcase Hitchcock's use of romantic tension. One of my favorite Hitchcock films without a romantic undercurrent is Shadow of a Doubt.

In reply to Table122000. I love Marnie, despite the issues that many others have with the story. It fascinates me every time I watch it.

I like all of the films you listed, some more favorites are Spellbound, Suspicion, and Rebecca. I think his best film looking at the dark side of love was Marnie.
