Scorpio this is a partial quote from a speech Hitch gave when he accepted an award from AFI about his wife. It came up today on my film noir FB group. The entire speech is on YouTube as you said his wife was instrumental in his success.
That's really beautiful and touching! Thanks for sharing that.
Notorious is one of my favorites, Claude Rains was genuinely scary. He was good in anything he did.
N By NW is too stagey for my liking, do like Eva Marie Saint.
Rebecca is good, Olivier so handsome. Not generally a fan of Joan Fontaine, not believing the delicate little flower act for a minute. She always struck me as cold as steel and tough as nails.
Did Hitchcock do Suspicion? Cary Grant and Joan Fontaine.

Yes, Claude Rains was an excellent actor no matter what he did. North by Northwest is good especially if one sees it for the first time. It's not a movie I would watch over and over, I would wait some years and then watch it again, love Cary Grant.
I also really like Joan Fontaine who was in Suspicion with Cary Grant. I really didn't care for that movie. The ending was changed because of Grant's wishes. I don't want to put any spoilers here in case someone reading hasn't seen the movie yet.
I thought Joan Fontaine was excellent in Rebecca as well as Mrs. Danvers (I forgot her name). I watched very early movies with Fontaine and I always enjoyed her acting.
That's interesting, I didn't know that. I read another article recently that stated the same thing.
I think it's because "Shadow Of A Doubt" sort of brings evil home to a small town setting that most of us can relate to. I love "The Man Who Knew Too Much" and other Hitchcock films that have stories based on somewhat international themes. But in "Shadow Of A Doubt" we're talking about evil right there in your own home.
