    Hi Cody. You pretty much nailed it in my opinion. I would have 39 Steps in there but I agree with the rest, even The Birds. 👍 North by Northwest is my 5th favourite film of all time, not because it is the best but because it's a film I could watch and enjoy endlessly. It's hard to believe North By Northwest and Frenzy were made by the same director, and that Frenzy came later, but they are both great in their own way.

      @@StellarLlama, The Criterion Collection is a physical media label/company that preserves, distributes, and helps to promote classic films. Often, it will focus on films that didn’t do well at the box office as well, but that are quality films in their own right (The Night of the Hunter is an example). It’s not just artsy films though. They also have campy films and just lots of stuff!

    Love this film, thank you for reviewing it, especially the Twilight Time release that I also managed to pick up a few months ago. I wonder if you have seen 84 Charing Cross Road with Hopkins and Anne Bancroft, it's a similar sort of slow bookish piece, to me at least, perhaps not as great as Remains but definitely worth a watch. Also really liking your videos, especially the western ones, many of which I have seen and love. But others I haven't, I bought the Gunfighter after watching one of your videos and loved it. And really looking forward to seeing Winchester '73 in January, another I have not seen. A few recommendations I suggest considering what I can tell from your likes is Harakiri and Samurai Rebellion, both on Criterion. Great films that really pack a punch on multiple levels. Anything by Kobayashi is well worth your time. The Breaking Point by Michael Curtiz and Moonrise by Borzage, for some overlooked noir gems, both on Criterion again. Thanks for the wonderful content, your love of these films really comes through.

    I highly recommend another film that Paul Muni made in the same year (1932): the classic “I am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang.” It is a genuine gut-punch of a film. It is based on the book “I am a Fugitive from a Georgia Chain Gang” and it is a true story written by the actual protagonist in the story. BTW, Ann Dvorak pronounced her last name “Vor-shack.”

    I've been to Matewan (you should go!) and to Thurmond (by the way, there was a push for some of those buildings to be destroyed but someone has stepped up to purchase and restore) and saw the movie in 1987. By far, one of my favorite movies of all time. John Sayles, Director, is an amazing storyteller and this movie is what turned me on to independent films. Got to hear at the 30th anniversary celebration of the movie and showing in Charleston (as well as the actor who played Danny and John's partner who plays the Italian wife). I'm a 7th generation West Virginia girl only born in Ohio. This film is SO underappreciated, as are many independent films that weren't necessarily box office hits. Great history!!!

    I expected to see scenes from the movie and was disappointed when I didn't. Bette Davis was one of the best actresses ever!
