Sadly, I think Rebecca i the only one of thos I have seen.

I already own some of these, but I’ll get them again since they’re remastered.

That's very pretty looking. I have some of the other Hitchcock collections. This will go nicely with it.

Sadly no lavish Criterion booklets on Spellbound, Notorious and Rebecca. I have all of those Criterion discs, and would feel like a heel if I sold them without the booklets. I also have Young & Innocent, The Lodger and Sabotage on one of those cheapie, public domain Hitchcock collections (20 movies for 20 bucks...naturally, they looked like shit). The Paradine Case is the only one I haven't seen, and I've heard it's one of Hitch's weaker movies. Still, if this is priced right, I may pick it up at some point.
