I am a big fan of Hitchcock's camera work and sound design. I am not a big fan of his stories/plots. I find them too simplistic. However there are a couple of notable exceptions. I loved N by NW for its plot (of course in addition to his audio+visual genius) and Vertigo is one of my all time favorites (top 15). I like it for its excellent theme, plot and technical finesse.

These are my ratings of his movies as per how I remember them today:

1. Birds **
2. Psycho ***
3. North by Northwest ****
4. Vertigo ****
5. The man who knew too much (zero stars)
6. Rear Window ***
7. Strangers on a train *
8. Shadow of a doubt *
