Hitchcock, son!!!!

Rating: 9/10 (19 October 2017)

One of the best films of all time.
Slightly(but only slightly) overrated.
People tend to forget how epic and bizarre this was for the time period.
Hitchcock's cameos and all his works are pretty decent, even to this day; even the birds is still hilarious for an occasional watch.
People who didn't like this one are expecting too much, or don't understand cinema. We used this movie in film lit. classes to explain how to do a lot of styles in film and draw certain subconscious responses. The Hershey's chocolate syrup for blood was great, and I mean, come on!! Who is brave enough to kill a lead actress early in the film and surprise everyone? The twists were very different, and still are quite original in many regards today.
Still great.
