I have seen them all. Some of them truly put me to sleep.
The best 3 in my opinion are North by Northwest (arguably precursor of 007), To Catch a Thief (great scenery & costumes and suspense) and Rear Window (hair raising suspense). The man who knew too much was good also, but not in your list?

My all time favorite movie is Day of the Jackal.

Rope is one of my favorites.

The Birds was (IMHO) kind of boring.

“Dial M for Murder” (1954) is a classic. The high point of Ray Milland’s career.

Saw “North by Northwest” in the theater as a boy when it first came out, great movie, and “The Birds” too a few years later, very scary.

I think “Rear Window” is his best and also love “The Birds”. I’d delete “Vertigo” and “Rope” from a list of his best and add “Lifeboat” and “The 39 Steps”.

His film on Hitler’s death camps isn’t there.

I've seen all the movies on the list.

I'd rather watch Marnie or The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956 version) than Dial M for Murder or Shadow of a Doubt.

Of the 13 Notorious is my fave , although I wasn’t a fan of Cary Grant’s acting in that movie .

Thanks for posting; when the weather cools off we may have to stage a neighborhood film festival in the back yard.

“Shadow of a doubt” is my and Hitchcock’s favorite. Joseph Cotton was excellent.
