The Trouble with Marnie (2000)
Memorable Marnie-isms
Since we all seem to thirst for more Hitch knowledge this documentary is a welcome addition..Jay Presson Allen is delightful, Diane Baker, Louise Latham are great to see and hear and Tippi proves a class act once again. Retaining her beauty and poise to this day, it is easy to see why Hitch became enamored of her. She enchants us with her tales from filming and charmingly so. Fascinating to hear about the real horses being used and Disney being involved with helping the Hitch team out ..great .amazing stuff here especially on the technical end where MARNIE took it's biggest drumming.. (after the chic effects from VERTIGO, NORTH BY NORTHWEST and THE BIRDS and the general now-wave PSYCHO) the old fashioned street sets and rear projection of MARNIE must have baffled at best. it also placed a huge pressure on the performers, especially Hedren who is on the screen almost the entire time. this woman did not have it easy ~! after the rigors of THE BIRDS, psychological torment of MARNIE boyh off the screen and on..a humorous story she tells of berating Hitchcock when he told her she would be frigid and her husband would be Sean Connery. More documentaries like this would be welcome
