Day 11: A Film by Your Favorite Director
The 39 Steps (Alfred Hitchcock, 1935)
This isn't my favorite Hitchcock film; it probably wouldn't even make my Top 5. That, however, has more to do with the fact that The Master has so many incredible masterpieces in his filmography than because The 39 Steps is a "lesser" Hitchcock. Like many of his films, this took me a couple of viewings to fully "get," but I absolutely adore this sleek, sexy spy adventure.
