Ron the 39 Steps is one of my favorite Hitchcock movies along with The North By Northwest, Psyco, and I also really enjoyed recently Sabatour.
You are right about recent films out of Hollywood though. Just saw the Bourne Supremacy and the MTV fast editing is enough to cause seazures. Just kidding. :frowning: 1 cut every .03 seconds or so is insane!!! The chase scene was rediculous. Most of the Best Picture noms this year were depressing. Only Munich [did not see Brokeback Mtn yet] left me feeling good. Spielberg is a master! A story teller. What do they teach in film schools??? :frowning: Sin City and Curse of the Were Rabbit were good as was Batman Begins. Not ALL bad.
