A Hitchcock fan for many years. I watch his movies countless times. Each viewing is as exciting as the first. There's so much going on and so many details to appreciate . Hitchcock was a master movie director. Timeless entertainment. Many thanks to this epic channel.
Oups fan aussi, J'ai oublié de regarder où il était dans le film. Habituellement je le vois tout de suite mais là j'écoutais en travaillant...je retourne voir😉
A film so great that 90 years later it still pleases thousands of viewers, Hitchcock of course. Superb cast led by Robert Donat, with a natural ease made for the screen, and delightful Madeleine Carroll not only a star in those years but also recognized for her heroic humanitarian efforts during WW2.
- A truly unique masterpiece. It shows that Hitchcock had "it" already in the beginning. Great choice of actors, atmospheric 1930's ambience and a successful retroish post-colorizing - deliberately not too well done. Plot was stunning combined with "Hitchcockian" shooting with it's angles and fleeting photographic, intense moments. Outstrips most contemporary spy movies with flying colours, even today. Not only HIGHLY recommended film - it's a MUST to watch.
@@guru6831..So true, finally I agree with a guru. ! Excuse me...Saboteur with Robert Cummings. ? + Patricia Lane. A great ending there on the Statue of Liberty, giving a grateful tip of the hat to the French, whom Hitch admired. But. " The 39 Steps" is Hitch's finest hour...not one word or scene is out of place or redundant. The theme of being alone, or contrast to loneliness is a really mature depiction for Hitch at only 35 when he made " 39 Steps ". ( Hitch was born in 1899. ) I have seen all his films and this is my favorite with great performances by Madeline Carrol and. Robert Donat. .. Enjoy. !!!
My favourite version of this film with the forever fabulous Robert Donat. Always time well spent to watch anything he is in, great actor sadly gone far too soon. Thank you x

A film so great that it still pleases viewers after 90 years. Hitchcock of course, superb writing and casting -- Robert Donat with an ease made for the screen, Madeleine Carroll gorgeous and a genuine humanitarian hero during the war years.
This movie is just as wonderful and exciting today as it was in 1935. Yes it departs from the book, but that does not detract from the perfection of this film. I love the colorized version!
I watched it at a theater in Houston that had an art house Cinema upstairs.... It was 1979, I snuck in after the feature Escape from Alcatraz (Eastwood)
So many small, humanizing brushstrokes in this terrific film - from the very beginning. One of my favorites was the camera lingering on Margaret, the grumpy farmer's wife, after she helps Hannay escape. Rest in paradise ✨️ to Hitch and these stellar players ~ especially Robert Donat.
@@Kimllg88...You and @ Jon scuba are very lucky guys. My first movie was the John Huston. " Moby Dick" in a drive in in Hammond Indiana...ooops a connection to the 39 Steps that I never realized till now. Hammond is Robert Donats name in this movie ! ps....hated the. Moby Dick.
One of my favourite films. I love the humour that Hitchcock puts into his films. I recognise the mountains, which I have climbed. Much of the filiming took place in Glencoe.
We had The 39 Steps and Lord of the Flies in the 10th year at St. Columbas High School in New Delhi in 1973 as part our English Literature studies. Each pupil would read 5 pages aloud in class and the homework at the end of the week was to summarise the story so far. The best summary got an award.👏👏
Donat is, as usual, excellent. He and Madeleine Carroll are so well matched here. This is a movie I keep coming back to, like the movie version of comfort food. But I never saw it in color. Wow! It's a whole different movie experience in color.
@@MultiSUPERLATIVO Notorius,North by northwest,Psycho,Vertigo,Rebecca... I mean where to start and where to finish with his movies? They are all unforgetable Masterpieces!!!
I love Hitchcock and can't believe I never saw this. What an absorbing movie. Robert Donat never gets the credit he deserves even though he won an Oscar. Madeleine Carroll should have made more films in the U.S.
Even Buchan, the author of the original '39 Steps' - quite different from the film version - was impressed with the changes. That's the ultimate compliment. Fwiw, the original story was a BBC broadcast in 1989. It's on YT and has an excitement all its own.
Robert Donat was a wonderful actor. The first film I saw him in was Goodbye Mr. Chips, he did such a fabulous job with the character of Schoolmaster Mr. Chips that I now watch everything that I see with him in it!
Have watched this film many times so very good. The extra bonus for me is that my late husband is the image of Robert Donat. Everlasting memory for me!
One of Hitchcock's best films, beautifully constructed with excellent acting by everyone, amazing cinematography. It's even better if you're born and raised in the U.K. to get all the references and feel of the culture and the times. Kids, put your little phones away, watch this film and all Hitchcock's others.
It's like a dream comes true we use to talk about putting color into the black and white film but that was 50years ago it is my 3rd film from this channel since thanks again for this beautiful time❤
I know practically every frame of this film, having watched it countless times over the years. I'm a stickler for authenticity but, in this case, the colorization actually enhances the whole experience. It's a masterful film with so many stylish camera angles and inventive editing throughout. I will never tire of it and can now enjoy it in tasteful colour - one of the best conversions from b&w that I've seen.
_Wow, my dearest Helen! The 39 Steps is really great!

The few minutes from 1:06:29 onward are a masterclass in screenwriting. Talkies back then, and for a long time after, were absolutely stuffed with stilted, proper dialogue that in no way represented how the everyman spoke. But that entire conversation is compelling and free of stilted bullshit. Not only that, but it acts as a natural builder of chemistry between the leads. It's a scene that could've been out of a movie made 40 years later, save for the odd archaic expression or perspective, and it's effortlessly entertaining. Hitchcock's appreciation for and ability to identify a good screenplay is a massive reason why he soared as highly as he did. Bravo to everyone involved
Thank you so much for this colourised version of this Hitchcock classic! The original still delights audiences as it did back in 1935. Love the cameo from Miles Malleson at the end 😂
Your team deserves great praise for the magnificent job you do. A lot of these films I've watched 50 times in black and white, and seeing them presented in color and with the picture clarity; it brings tears to my eyes as I watch them.
@josephguberman6959 Thank you so much Joseph! It's very rewarding to read that our viewers in the CCC community appreciate all the work that goes on behind each movie that is available here in the channel. Hope you keep enjoying many more of our movies! 😉
@@CultCinemaClassics...Wow.. I have seen this great movie over 100 times since it is my fave Hitch- cock. This is the most clearly I have heard the voices and sound- track. I did not mind the colorization as some hear have stated. well done. CCC. Did you do the colorization ?
This is a perfect movie. It all ends in the last scene as it opened w Mr. Memory!! Plus the plot and love story (hands grasping together finally) I cheer everytime like a lil kid Hooray!!!!
Absolutely amazing movie... Proves that from whatever year, Hitchcock is THE MAN.... the ending is sensational, even today!!! Does not resemble ANY other early movie I've ever seen. Focus and color were far better than I expected. And Madeleine Carroll is a stunning beauty - with great legs. WOW. Michigan.
Carroll quit filmdom after her sister was killed in the London blitz and worked as an army nurse tending the wounded. Eisenhower was totally impressed with her.
The first of Hitchcock's blonds and far and away the most adorable (and best actress- especially enjoyed seeing her in another fabulous '30's movie- about an insurance company, yet(!): Lloyd's of London (which also introduced Tyrone Power)
@@jessiedoggie1Anny Ondra, the Czech girl in 'Blackmail', was the first blonde, though less self-posessed than Carroll, Kelly et al. There is an amusing clip of Hitch teasing and embarrassing Anny when testing the primitive sound equipment: 'Have you slept with men?' A hint of his sadistic streak.
One of my all time favourites, madeline was born in my neck of the woods, West Bromwich, brilliant film watch it twice a week and I never gets bored of it.
I watched the film a year ago and it's amazing how many new details you see. The dialog is limited to the necessity and it's out movement in every shot.
Right? Once I noticed a metal shelf in a different movie made in the 40"s that I found one exactly at a Thrift store, what a find & I truly treasure that metal shelf, lol
heureuse de revoir ce chef d'œuvre colorisé ! un cocktail de tous les futurs films d'Hitchcock , humour, suspens jusqu'au bout ! merci à Cult Cinema Classics.
This is a very clever spy movie- leave it to Hitchcock to find a good one, plus Donat and Carroll. Long before the world had spies everywhere during WWII, this one drew on imagination. You'd think the others made about WWII would be as good, especially with tons of true stories, but most were not, IMO. Love these oldies that make you THINK! TY- great post and HD.
The original '39 Steps' movie , and it's still the best ❗ I've not seen it in colour though , so I will hold my judgement until I've finished watching 😊 🇬🇧✝️
26:00 it was so useful to have a door to every compatment on the outside 😂 I wonder how people back then felt when they started building carriages without those. Maybe the same way I feel about windows that don't open - appaled 😅
The era with the Best movies and the best clothes!! I mean, look at that coat at 8:16 The protagonist Robert Donat, is also the The Count of Monte Cristo! Another brilliant must see movie! What a talented actor!!! I can't get enough of these movies!!!
@@sciagurrato1831He won the Best Actor Oscar for that performance against some very stiff competition in 1939: Clark Gable in “Gone With The Wind, James Stewart in “Mr. Smith Goes To Washington”, Laurence Olivier in “Wuthering Heights”, and Mickey Rooney in “Babes In Arms”.
@@sciagurrato1831 Yes it really is a shame. He was also nominated the year before for his portrayal of a poor country doctor who eventually makes good and begins to abandon his moral conscience in “The Citadel”. Another brilliant performance of his, that is a personal favorite of mine, was as a barrister in “The Winslow Boy” (1948 version). He was a wonderful actor who was hampered by ill health and crippling self doubt (I have no idea why).
What a beautiful old classic gem of a movie with Donat and Madeleine Carroll. A beautiful Hitchcock movie done gracefully that is funny as well as thrilling with decency, dignity and respect in sharp contrast with the movies nowadays that are full of abhorrent violence, abominable sex scenes and with no real values. Thank you again for uploading these old gems. May Our Lord and God Jesus Christ Bless you and all of us ❤❤❤❤
watching with German subs to learn some German... Funny how Carroll didn't necessarily look all that attractive on the train or even at the political rally, but chained to Donat out on the Moors, she's got it goin' on!
Fantastischer Film, so reich an kleinen aber genialen Einfällen! Die Schauspieler absolut überzeugend, vor allem das Pärchen. Und, so hoffe ich, mit ein paar echten Bildern aus Schottland!
Wikipedia notes are right: Hitchcock appears at 6:59 walking in front of the bus Hanney and "Ms Smith" catch. From memory, in North by North West he gets baulked in catching a taxi at Fifth in front of the UN offices just after the intro overture credits.
..Hitch is trying to get on a public bus, but the driver slams the door on him so he is left on the sidewalk in despair. No cab involved. I hold the world's record of seeing North× Northwest"....over 850 times. !
Friendly discussion with friend who insisted the Coens are, in tandem, the best director. Type in the filmography of Alfred Hitchcock and count them. The brothers have a ways to go. 1935: incredible! Everyone else started a "step" behind, from his silents to Frenzy, you'll run out of fingers and toes.
I agree wholeheartedly with you. You can't re-make a classis. The re-make of Flight of the Phoenix is a good example. It's an awful film. This is sheer delight.
Rubbish = Anything made by the Commie Liberal Groomers who run Disney. It was a joy to watch this film, a classic old film that only set out to entertain. And not a modern film advancing the toxic liberal agenda.
Just when I thought the 39 steps couldn't get any better,this colour version has just smashed it for me , whole new watching experience,as much as I liked and watched the bw version many many times this version is equally if not better for me thanks alot for uploading 🎩👌
I love all the 39 steps films, glad this one has been colourized. I dont suppose you have "While I live" do you and "The Warsaw Concerto" and others like it, have been wanting to see While I live for decades.
@MegaDeansy Give it a try! A lot of people here in the CCC community talk about how amazing it is to see their favorite films in color, they pick up on plenty on new things. Just for info, in case you come across another colorized film that you aren't 100% sure if you want to watch in color, check the description box. You'll find the link to the B&W version 😉👍 Let us know if you tried out a few minutes of this one in color! Curious to know your thoughts/feelings and what the novelty brings you!!
Unfortunately Mr. memory didn't know what causes pip in poultry. Well, Infectious coryza is a fairly common infection of the respiratory tract in chickens. It's sometimes called roup, catarrh, pip, or IC. It is caused by the bacterium avibacterium paragallinarum, once known as haemophilus paragallinarum.
I love this film, I'm of an age that appreciates the old films. God bless the older actors.

has some mistakes in it. "39 Steps" has no mistakes, but I like
them both a whole bunch.
This is a perfect movie. It all ends in the last scene as it opened w Mr. Memory!! Plus the plot and love story (hands grasping together finally) I cheer everytime like a lil kid Hooray!!!!
Absolutely amazing movie... Proves that from whatever year, Hitchcock is THE MAN.... the ending is sensational, even today!!! Does not resemble ANY other early movie I've ever seen. Focus and color were far better than I expected. And Madeleine Carroll is a stunning beauty - with great legs. WOW. Michigan.
Carroll quit filmdom after her sister was killed in the London blitz and worked as an army nurse tending the wounded. Eisenhower was totally impressed with her.
The first of Hitchcock's blonds and far and away the most adorable (and best actress- especially enjoyed seeing her in another fabulous '30's movie- about an insurance company, yet(!): Lloyd's of London (which also introduced Tyrone Power)
@@jessiedoggie1Wow! I didn’t know that. Thanks for the info.
@@jessiedoggie1Anny Ondra, the Czech girl in 'Blackmail', was the first blonde, though less self-posessed than Carroll, Kelly et al. There is an amusing clip of Hitch teasing and embarrassing Anny when testing the primitive sound equipment: 'Have you slept with men?' A hint of his sadistic streak.
A good movie for sure. I've viewed it multiple times and enjoyed each time. Good script & good acting.
Me too.
@@naguerea...This film energises
me like no other.. ! That final scene on the theatre is just tops. !!
One of the Greatest movie of all time 🎥🎬
Still find it amazing that when this was made , WW2 hadn’t happened yet.
People were just recovering from WWI but Hotler was already working on his party. The Munich Coup was in 1933.
I Love Alfred Hitchcock movies. This is another good one. Thanks for sharing.
One of my all time favourites, madeline was born in my neck of the woods, West Bromwich, brilliant film watch it twice a week and I never gets bored of it.
I watched the film a year ago and it's amazing how many new details you see. The dialog is limited to the necessity and it's out movement in every shot.
I love these colourised old movies, especially the way they reveal so much more detail, beautiful.
Isn't it fun to see the architecture, furniture, and clothing?
Right? Once I noticed a metal shelf in a different movie made in the 40"s that I found one exactly at a Thrift store, what a find & I truly treasure that metal shelf, lol
love it@@maewebster9377
heureuse de revoir ce chef d'œuvre colorisé ! un cocktail de tous les futurs films d'Hitchcock , humour, suspens jusqu'au bout ! merci à Cult Cinema Classics.
... de rien...
@@danielgiraud1118...OUI. OUI. !!!
Merci mon petit Michel Maccaroni@@michaelcelani8325
En noir et blanc ou recoloriser, le suspense est toujours de mise avec A. Hitchcock !
First Hitchcock film I'd ever seen. Watched with my dad. Not sure if he'd even remember
Thank you for posting this!! It's one of my all time favorite films!
What a great movie! Thanks for posting!
There have been other adaptations of the book but this is still the best
The subtitles in this are very amusing. This version of The 39 Steps grows on you, & even better in colour. Many thanks for the upload 😀.
This is a very clever spy movie- leave it to Hitchcock to find a good one, plus Donat and Carroll. Long before the world had spies everywhere during WWII, this one drew on imagination. You'd think the others made about WWII would be as good, especially with tons of true stories, but most were not, IMO. Love these oldies that make you THINK! TY- great post and HD.
Fantastic film. Another world.
I adore hitchcocks films..this film although old exels in creating high standard plot and best direction which is hitchcocks speciality .
The original '39 Steps' movie , and it's still the best ❗
I've not seen it in colour though , so I will hold my judgement until I've finished watching 😊
🇬🇧✝️
Un superbe Hitchcock
This is a British classic, brilliant& look how old it is. The rubbish you get today 🤦♀️
You are correct,Norah.
The man was a genius. How old was Alfred Hitchcock when he made this? He had a gift.
Hitchcock was 36 years old when this film was made as he was born in 1899.
It is in my top ten; chosen because of how they changed my life.
I prefer black and white. But I enjoyed this film! I can see how influential it was to the spy genre going forward. Some serious "bourne" vibes.
Much obliged for this video.
A classic Hitchcock film
26:00 it was so useful to have a door to every compatment on the outside 😂 I wonder how people back then felt when they started building carriages without those. Maybe the same way I feel about windows that don't open - appaled 😅
I hate windows that don't open. I'm so claustrophobic that I don't go to Escape Rooms.
I'm crazy about Donat, coupled with Hitchcock it doesn't get any better. Thank you !
A rarely seen Classic Alfred Hitchcock movie, excellent and top quality as his works always are! Thanks for posting.
i thought i have watched all the best ones from Alfred Hitchcock , but this movie by him is so cool. Really good.
The era with the Best movies and the best clothes!! I mean, look at that coat at 8:16 The protagonist Robert Donat, is also the The Count of Monte Cristo! Another brilliant must see movie! What a talented actor!!! I can't get enough of these movies!!!
Robert Donat also played Mr Chips in the unforgettable “Goodbye Mr Chips”.
I wonder how these people would think of the world that we've made😢🧐✌️🙏🇬🇧💯
HITCHCOCK son of a green grosser, so was
Maggie Thatcher 🆘🎬
@@sciagurrato1831He won the Best Actor Oscar for that performance against some very stiff competition in 1939:
Clark Gable in “Gone With The Wind, James Stewart in “Mr. Smith Goes To Washington”, Laurence Olivier in “Wuthering Heights”, and Mickey Rooney in “Babes In Arms”.
@@MsAppassionata very good point! All these actors are legends with Donat being the least remembered.
@@sciagurrato1831 Yes it really is a shame. He was also nominated the year before for his portrayal of a poor country doctor who eventually makes good and begins to abandon his moral conscience in “The Citadel”. Another brilliant performance of his, that is a personal favorite of mine, was as a barrister in “The Winslow Boy” (1948 version). He was a wonderful actor who was hampered by ill health and crippling self doubt (I have no idea why).
What a beautiful old classic gem of a movie with Donat and Madeleine Carroll. A beautiful Hitchcock movie done gracefully that is funny as well as thrilling with decency, dignity and respect in sharp contrast with the movies nowadays that are full of abhorrent violence, abominable sex scenes and with no real values. Thank you again for uploading these old gems. May Our Lord and God Jesus Christ Bless you and all of us ❤❤❤❤
watching with German subs to learn some German...
Funny how Carroll didn't necessarily look all that attractive on the train or even at the political rally, but chained to Donat out on the Moors, she's got it goin' on!
It bears little resemblance to John Buchan's wonderful novel, but it's a cracking good film and still a thrilling watch. Oh, the Flying Scotsman!!
Fantastischer Film, so reich an kleinen aber genialen Einfällen!
Die Schauspieler absolut überzeugend, vor allem das Pärchen.
Und, so hoffe ich, mit ein paar echten Bildern aus Schottland!
And Hitler was beginning to plan the mayhem in Europe at that very moment.
Muchas gracias por subir esta película, me ha encantado.
Alfred Hitchcock my local hero Lived in Leytonstone London E11 Murals to his films in subway on Central Line Subway
Mr memory, was in a movie called THE MAN THAT MADE MIRACLE'S
A VERY GOOD OLD MOVIE🎬💯🇬🇧✌️🧐
THANKS FOR POSTING THIS GEM
Wikipedia notes are right: Hitchcock appears at 6:59 walking in front of the bus Hanney and "Ms Smith" catch. From memory, in North by North West he gets baulked in catching a taxi at Fifth in front of the UN offices just after the intro overture credits.
..Hitch is trying to get on a public
bus, but the driver slams the door
on him so he is left on the sidewalk
in despair. No cab involved.
I hold the world's record of seeing
North× Northwest"....over 850 times. !
Brilliant in every way. Love the colourisation although it doesn't do the loaf of bread any favours at 12:36 😄
Friendly discussion with friend who insisted the Coens are, in tandem, the best director. Type in the filmography of Alfred Hitchcock and count them. The brothers have a ways to go. 1935: incredible! Everyone else started a "step" behind, from his silents to Frenzy, you'll run out of fingers and toes.
Assisti tem alguns anos e hoje novamente !!! Muito bom filme !!! Obrigada !!
Almost a century ago this was made and look at the rubbish they make today......
I agree with you great movies yesterday with few bucks bad movies nowadays with à lot of money/jacob 😢
I agree wholeheartedly with you. You can't re-make a classis. The re-make of Flight of the Phoenix is a good example. It's an awful film. This is sheer delight.
Yessssss❤
Name that rubbish....
Rubbish = Anything made by the Commie Liberal Groomers who run Disney.
It was a joy to watch this film, a classic old film that only set out to entertain. And not a modern film advancing the toxic liberal agenda.
Superb !
Hitchcokc in regizor genial!
Mulțumesc frumos pentru acest film !❤❤❤
Just when I thought the 39 steps couldn't get any better,this colour version has just smashed it for me , whole new watching experience,as much as I liked and watched the bw version many many times this version is equally if not better for me thanks alot for uploading 🎩👌
@freespiritnufc5661 Fantastic!!!! You will always find a link to the color version in the description box if we have it.
Colorizing black and white movies should be a crime but im still thankful for the video
Awesome movie thanks for the upload 😊
This movie and Lady Vanishes make a great double feature
Best double feature in the history of cinema
Classic cinematography , especially panning the camera through the car back window and then the scene of the road to Inveraray !
... classic cinematography until somebody slathered ugly digital color goop all over it.
@@yohei72 yes! I totally agree.
Classic Hitchcock film bar none, however I always liked the black and white version.
Sublime genius. Thanks for putting this up.
I've watched this about four times now, great stuff. Hitchcock is very near the beginning outside the theatre
I love all the 39 steps films, glad this one has been colourized. I dont suppose you have "While I live" do you and "The Warsaw Concerto" and others like it, have been wanting to see While I live for decades.
Another Hitchcock classic! (Helen is a Tamil Nadu classic!)☕👍⬆✔🏁
Oh nice of u Big John! 👸 💋 💋
Better than ever in color. Very sophisticated for an early Hitchcock.
Excelente película. Gracias por la oportunidad de ponerla a disposición del pueblo. 👌
I dont know if I should watch this, my all-time favourite film - IN COLOUR ??!!.. I'll come back later ........
@MegaDeansy Give it a try! A lot of people here in the CCC community talk about how amazing it is to see their favorite films in color, they pick up on plenty on new things.
Just for info, in case you come across another colorized film that you aren't 100% sure if you want to watch in color, check the description box. You'll find the link to the B&W version 😉👍
Let us know if you tried out a few minutes of this one in color! Curious to know your thoughts/feelings and what the novelty brings you!!
Unfortunately Mr. memory didn't know what causes pip in poultry. Well, Infectious coryza is a fairly common infection of the respiratory tract in chickens. It's sometimes called roup, catarrh, pip, or IC. It is caused by the bacterium avibacterium paragallinarum, once known as haemophilus paragallinarum.
I've watched this film I don't know how many times and I never knew what causes pip in poultry. I do now! Thank you!
A true classic.
Un très bon film. J'ai beaucoup apprécié. Et Hitchock m'a toujours plu.
