I wouldn't necessarily call it underrated. Excellent film

its not underrated.

it is considered by many critics to be one of hitchcock's greatest films.

Really? Frenzy is considered one of his best? I thought it was one of his worst. I´m throwing my hat in for The Lady Vanishes. I know its highly regarded in the UK but in the USA its barely known in the mainstream.

yourare probably right, i am over-stating it. it was his penultimate feature film, and considered a return to top form.

i consider it to be singularly, memorably horrible.

I rarely hear Rebecca mentioned, but I have seen it hailed at least once by a film scholar type as Alfred's best.

Have you seen it? I have not, but I need to.

I've seen it several times and it's definitely ( oops ) worth a watch. One of Hitchcock's best endings in my opinion, emphasizing his macabre sense of humor.

Definitely, or specifically? ;)

A solid 8/10. Not underrated but underseen I would say.

"The Birds" is said to be his worst. It's one of my favourites from him.
