I'm conflicted. I do want to purchase this, but I may wait.

If you purchase now, you get 4 of the films in 4K, and those 4 will port to MA in 4K.

Saboteur / Shadow of a Doubt / The Trouble with Harry / Marnie / Family Plot should upgrade to 4K in iTunes around May or so, when the 2nd Alfred Hitchcock collection is released on 4K disc ... but they will not update to 4K in MA if you already own them.

If I wait to purchase until after the upgrade, then the additional 5 movies (9 in total) will port to MA in 4K. The risk is that it doesn't hit this price point again.

Owned some of these already, but added 10 to my collection. Got 5,000 Universal All-Access Rewards points [myuniversalrewards.com], so that's equal to another 5 free movies. Not a bad deal overall! Thanks OP!

The Pink Panther collection is also $19.99 again.
Unfortunately, it's not Movies Anywhere.

Yes movies from the 50s in general are slower, so you have to be in the mood for that. I also like watching them on TCM channel. Before the show the host explains some of the filming techniques and story telling he invented, which are copied by everyone today. Sometimes it makes the film even better to watch.
That isn't true though, plenty of movies is the old days weren't slow. Hitchcock wise, Shadow of a Doubt is intense, and my favorite by him.

Rear Window is more claustrophobic, it is almost a stage production. My complaint on Hitchcock is the endings can be a bit anti-climatic, like The Wrong Man, or he tries to get a little too clever with presentation, How to Catch a Thief. But overall, he is gold standard in film making.

And this deal is ridiculously good. But why is the deal rated 3.5 of 5 stars?

You got 500 or 5,000 points? I got 500. I think I already owned some.
500 per movie, since I already owned 4, got 500 each for the other 10. Points added almost instant. Have experienced in past where it took longer to add points, but not this time.

Amazing director, but a bit of a precursor to Harvey Weinstein.

Worth every penny. I'd pay this much just for Rear Window, Psycho, and The Birds.

Those of you new to Universal rewards you can get the monthly movies free by creating new accounts using "BETTERTOGETHER" offer code. Every month since like October that's been working.

As for the lower rating...read the reviews. Most low ratings were due to the collection not being "complete"...that is no movies such as North by Northwest. But the collection IS complete for Universal only films.

Argh, I forgot to link to my myuniversal account before purchasing. Hopefully I can find a method to account for these 14 brand new purchases over there. They have some decent freebies over there here and there.

Many modern viewers want Surprise. Rear Window is all about Suspense. Two different things.

I've always wondered why "North By Northwest" is never/rarely included in these bigger movie collections. Anyone know? I'm sure it's a licensing issue, I just don't get it.
