Now fuck off

Bernard Herrman is too good.
>>69782203
by this point herrmans cattleprod style of music had lost its mojo. the acting was p bad (especially perkins), the script wasnt good it was lazy (like a lot of his later work) - i think hitchcock was senile well before he croaked - & in general it was more like one of his tv show episodes.
>>69782337
Bernard Herrman penned Souvenirs de Voyage and he doesn't need me to defend him to you, the only people that think the acting in this movie is bad were people who just didn't get it, Hitchcock's script and editing were excellent.
>>69782337
>by this point herrmans cattleprod style of music had lost its mojo
What are you talking about? The music for the shower and the staircase murder were almost perfect. How has that lost it's mojo?
>the acting was p bad (especially perkins)
Gotta disagree once again. He delivered his lines very naturally. Just look at this, it's like the camera isn't even there https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iTLUzEjV3Bg
>the script wasnt good it was lazy (like a lot of his later work)
And disagreeing with this once again. I've got massive respect for Hitchcock for going into this direction with his script. At the time it was the most controversial thing in Hollywood.
The story also goes into a very different direction than the audience would suspect by killing the protagonist. I think this is not lazy at all.
>>69781469
Listen here. I'm big Hitchcock fan, saw all of his films multiple times, so my list will be the only correct one.
1. Vertigo
2. Psycho
3. Rear Window
4. North by Northwest
His other works are not very important to be mentioned.

>His other works are not very important to be mentioned.
What a load of crap.
Rebecca is really the only rewatchable Hitchcock movie.
>>69782924
Of course I can rate all of them, but pretty much only these 4 I mentioned are masterpieces.
>>69782573
wasn't really attacking herrman thou. & a lot of hitchcock's later work was lazy, around the time he started to use colour, he stopped looking through the camera. and perkins was overacting.
>>69782615
tb h dog i wasnt feelin his energy
>n-n-no there isnt
yea hes really great
psycho was popular & hence controversial but nothing new (diabolique, touch of evil)
>>69782778
lmao
>>69783070
i might be biased towards rebecca because of selznick tbf
>>69783070
but hitchcock himself said shadow of a doubt was his best
>>69783117
I don't really agree with there being nothing new.
We had some sort of sympathy with the killer, there was realistic murder (on a naked person) and the sexual explicitness
>>69783291
film noir bruh bruh
pre-code bruh bruh
>>69783216
well i disagree. the same way, for instance, nolan can say his best is interstellar because he thinks so, but in reality it is one of his weakest. i'm not a nolan fan, just an example
>>69783372
in 30 years maybe we will look back & see interstellar to be his best (ive never seen it), like how kubrick said eyes wide shut was his best.
>>69783372
>>69783572
nolan isn't significant or good enough to even make the comparison
>>69782778
baiting like a true rookie
>>69782026
Literally just don't be 14 years old.

o shit waddup
>>69783572
1.) Eyes Wide Shit isn't Kubrick's best
2.) Interstellar is not Nolan's best (you'd know that if you saw it.)
3.) The director doesn't decide which of his movies is his best.
