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.
I saw “Psycho” the week that it was released.
I was married about a month later and we were staying at a motel in VA.
We were having car trouble so one morning my husband left to get the car taken care of and I went in to take a shower.
I damned near died of fright as soon as the water hit me. :-)

My all time favorite movie is “The Best years of Our Lives.”
Tears well up every time I see it.
Yup. Roger Thornhill in “North By Northwest” was James Bond. He just didn’t know it! The Bond filmmakers have said “North By Northwest” influenced them a great deal. I think it virtually invented the modern action-adventure genre. What a truly fantastic movie, that still holds up extremely well today.
