Mystery. Drama
Marnie Edgar is an ice-cold habitual thief. She uses her looks to gain the confidence of her employers, robs them, and changes her identity. Her only loves are her horse and her mother, although she has problems with the latter relationship. Marnie applies for a job at Mark Rutland's Philadelphia publishing company. Mark recognises her since he is a client of her last employer, but instead of turning her in, he decides to watch her.

United States | The New York Times | "Universally despised on its first release, Marnie remains one of Alfred Hitchcock's greatest and darkest achievements" | POS |
United States | The New Yorker | "Hitchcock gives his obsessions luridly free rein—intentionally and not" | POS |
United Kingdom | Time Out | "It's still thrilling to watch, lush, cool and oddly moving" | POS |
United States | The New York Times | "At once a fascinating study of a sexual relationship and the master's most disappointing film in years" | NEU |
United States | Time | "When an unknown director turns out a suspense melodrama as dreary and unconvincing as this, moviegoers revel in the thought of what it might have been if Hitchcock had done it." | NEG |
United Kingdom | Empire | "This remains a compelling Hitchcock thriller but it's Tippi Hedron's remarkable central performance which steals the show (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)" | POS |
