What Would You Put In ____'s Definitive Collection?
 

OK, I snagged this idea from another board, but I'm going to alter it a bit. Each week I will name a new Actor, Director, Producer, or Genre, and you will post what you wish to be in that collection. As we all know, there is no set number to the amount of DVDs that come in boxed sets. To make this a bit easier, I'm setting the allowed number of DVDs to be no less than four, but no greater than seven.

We will begin with . . .


I'd like to give a nod to Strangers on a Train (1951).

I'll bite: these aren't necessarily my faves or what I consider the best, but they're all interesting and might be missed by some otherwise. Of course, that makes them all essential and, um... definitive.

There are obviously many more, but if you haven't seen all of these, you need to see more Hitch. :cool:

Hey Destiny no Vertigo? then it's not a definitive collection :p

In my opinion, Vertigo is real good, but not great. I'd be curious to see what's in your definitive collection. Mainly because you've put The Birds before all other Hitchcock films.

Re: What's In Your Definitive Collection?
 

I definitely own a LOT of Hitchcock flicks. :D

OK, I'm changing the title . . .

The Birds is my personal favorite Hitchcock movie (for many reasons)...Of course he has made better movies, I do not deny it. :cool:

What ever happened to this thread? Sounded interesting to me

OK, I'll throw out a new name to get things going again. How about a "definitive" Humphrey Bogart set?

If Des doesn't want the job of naming something new every week, I'll take over.

Re: What Would You Put In ____'s Definitive Collection?
 

Okay, Humphrey Bogart...

The Caine Mutiny
The African Queen
Dark Passage
Casablanca
Treasure of the Sierra Madre
The Maltese Falcon
To Have and Have Not

No, I'd rather it stay random. Where someone new makes one up each week. Whoever does, should also make a list for each famous person mentioned, or at least the bulk of them. You haven't made one up for either person.
