- completely disagree with Jim about Roger Rabbit which is still one of the greatest films ever made, but against The Big Sleep...

Abstain - been too long since I've seen BH & not sure which Vanishing this is.
Blue Velvet - not a fan of The Usual Suspects
Charade - The 39 Steps didn't impress me that much. Maybe I'll give it another chance in the future.
The Third Man

Abstain - seen both, couldn't care less which one wins this bracket

Charade - very tough

Chinatown - both are great, but Chinatown is clearly superior

Blue Velvet - easy
The 39 Steps - Not very high on my Hitchcock list but still better than Charade
Chinatown - I don't know if I would call either great, but I agree with the gist of what George said.

The Vanishing easily. Amazing film.

Blue Velvet- You can't beat Lynch, though I do love Suspects.

Charade

Chinatown

Blue Velvet and The Third Man (both are in my 100 greatest films ever made list) easily over their rivals
