30's Best
The Rules Of The Game

70's Best
Apocalypse Now

Animated
Fantasia

I rented the Blackmail/Juno and the Paycock disc from Netflix some months ago when I was going on a Hitchcock bender. Juno is a very different Hitch movie, very downbeat and critical of wealth subverting traditional values, but very stagey and not as good as the similarly downbeat The Skin Game which isn't too far off thematically from Rules of the Game.

Brook, if you haven't yet, you should check out Hitchcock's The Ring. The most polished silent film he ever made, and probably the best silent drama in my opinion (though it isn't as well known as films like Sunrise).
