The list author says: "If you are like many other Alfred Hitchcock enthusiasts, you have the ultimate goal to own every Alfred Hitchcock film. Unfortunately, several of his films are out of print or do not exist any more. However, fortunately, for the films that are still in print, many have been put into collections that will make your collection nearly complete with just a few purchases."
"You will be able to knock out a fourth of the films with just this collection. If you are to get only one of the collections, this should be the one. It contains many of the movies that most people think of when they hear Hitchcock's name, including Psycho, Vertigo, Rear Window, and The Birds."
"If you are able to purchase only two collections, purchase The Masterpiece Collection and this one, as this covers most of the other movies that most people think of when they hear Hitchcock, such as North by Northwest, Strangers on a Train, and Dial M for Murder."
"Several of the previously OOP Hitchcock films are now available in this collection, including Spellbound, Notorious, Rebecca, and The Paradine Case. Also included are Lifeboat, Sabotage, Young and Innocent, and The Lodger. The last three films are included in some of the other collections, so you may end up owning some films twice."
"This is a fantastic collection for the money. The quality of the picture is not perfect, but it certainly does the job. And, being able to scratch off a third of the list with one $10 purchase is definitely rewarding. Containing such well-known classics as the original The Man Who Knew Too Much, The 39 Steps, and The Lady Vanishes, this is a very good collection for the price."
"Surprisingly not in one of the collections, To Catch a Thief should be a part of everyone's Hitchcock collection. Starring Cary Grant and Grace Kelly, this is a must-see for Hitchcock fanatics and moderate fans alike."
"Two half-hour war-time French films, Bon Voyage & Aventure Malgache are welcome additions to a Hitchcock collection, though $20+ is a little pricy for two half-hour shorts. Worth the price, though, to complete the collection."
"Not one of Hitchcock's finest moments (he, too, did not speak highly fo the film), though cinematically interesting. He attempted to follow the same single-shot style as in Rope but without being confined to a single set which ended up being both interesting and somewhat sloppy. If you are chosing one film not to own, this would be the one, but it's worth seeing at least once."
