The ultimate Hitchcock showdown. I almost need to flip a coin on this one. Going with Rear Window.
Stop giving me this one! Too painful!

Well, Jimmy Stewart "just" swings it for me.

Wow! Very hard. But i go with Rear Window.

Was never too thrilled with NxNW, or any other time Hitch attempted comedy. REAR WINDOW is one of his finest, a very successful experiment and an excellent example of his strengths as a storyteller.

Very very tough! I go with Rear Window!

God i love Hitchcock,he's my all time favorite director. These movies are both outstanding and i adore them equally. Rear Window gets my vote because it's pure genius. It's so cleaver and gets better and better every time you see it. This was NOT an easy choice to make.

This is quite close but Grace Kelly wins it for Rear Window.

As much as I love Rear Window, it has to be North by Northwest. Rear Window is brilliant both despite and because of its self-imposed constraints, but I cannot deny North by Northwest and Ernest Lehman's fabulous screenplay.

Oh boy, this is so painful. But I'm going with Rear Window. :'( for North by Northwest.

very hard decision, but Rear Window will get this one

Two of my favorite Hitchcock movies, but I think Rear Window is a bit better. And yes, Grace Kelly is way hotter than Eva Marie Saint.
North by Northwest is still the Hitchcock film that defines him at what he does best.....build suspense. Rear Window is right up there. This was a hard choice.

North by Northwest by a nose. I have 10 Hitchcock movies in my top 200 and I just feel that N by NW best exemplifies Alfred Hitchcock. Comedy, Suspense, Storytelling and don't forget the Macguffin, and don't forget it spawned many imitators.

Rear Window. Period.
on 3/25/2012
I vote for Rear Window.
I really need to see Rear Window again, but for now, I'll go with North by Northwest.
Rear Window is my favorite Hitchcock movie. It wins.

I really liked North by Northwest, but Rear Window definitely wins this one.
on 7/11/2012
Rear Window is my favorite Hitchcock movie
on 7/14/2012
North by Northwest is my favorite Hitchcock movie to date.
on 12/10/2012
There are just too many stretches in Rear Window where not much happens. The more frantic North by Northwest brings the thrills and, thus, wins this matchup.

I love both of these Hitchcock films, but North by Northwest is just the film that screams out the name. It has everything Comedy, suspense, drama, and the perfect Macguffen. It's a close call, but North by Northwest will take it in the end!

Rear Window is a much better vehicle. Even though I like NBNW, at times it seems a bit contrived.
on 1/25/2013
Guys nobnw is more entertaining and has more memorable scenes than rear window in my opinion . That s why im voting for nobnw . But rear window is awesome too
on 1/27/2013
Superb contest but I still believe Rear Window is a finer achievement. Not to mention this contest is extremely difficult as they are both Hitchcock classics and are both in my Top 20

I like north by north west but no were near as good as rear window.
