OUTSTANDING Hitchcock THRILLER

Dec 28, 2001

Rating:

MARNIE remains to many an iconic and visually-ravishing story of huge appeal and power. Originally intended as the film that would lure Grace Kelly out of her self-imposed retirement in Monaco, when the deal fell through Hitch left the project for several years until during the filming of THE BIRDS, he cast his star Tippi Hedren as MARNIE.

Marnie Edgar (Hedren) is a mentally-troubled young woman who is wanted for theft in several states. When she goes to work for Mark Rutland (Sean Connery), then attempts to rob him; Mark impulsively marries the troubled beauty and attempts to discover the reasons for her compulsive behaviour. When a terrible accident finally pushes Marnie to the edge of her sanity, Mark forces her to confront her terrors and her past in a shattering, inescapable conclusion.

Featuring Diane Baker and Louise Latham in outstanding supporting roles, MARNIE is one of Hitchcock's best films, and certainly his most under-rated.

The DVD includes the documentary "The Trouble With Marnie" which contains interviews with Tippi Hedren, Diane Baker and Louise Latham; the original trailer, a scored picture gallery, and production notes.

I do belive in the statement that if you don't love MARNIE you don't really love Hitchcock.
