Nobody else is making a case for it so I'm going to say "Marnie", Hitch's second movie with Tippi Hedren. She plays a kleptomaniac with a troubled past who is caught stealing by Sean Connery's banker and blackmailed into marrying him. It's a slow movie but it's absolutely compulsive viewing. It was Hitchcock's last collaboration with composer Bernard Herrmann (who did the music for Psycho and Vertigo amongst others) and cinematographer Robert Burks. The use of colour in the film is very interesting; because Marnie is scared of the colour red, that colour is deliberately avoided on screen so that the shock is heightened subconsciously when it finally occurs. Nicolas Roeg did much the same thing with the colour red in his superb film "Don't Look Now", which contains many Hitchcockian moments.

My all-time favorite film is Vertigo (1958). It's an incredible artistic masterpiece, richly textured and arranged with remarkable precision, and it is Alfred Hitchcock's most profound and personal work. It is a tale of love, death, guilt and obsession, and it features highly inventive and creative camera angles, surreal and dream-like cinematography, vibrant San Francisco scenery, a hauntingly beautiful and unconventional musical score from the legendary composer Bernard Herrmann, and a frightening, career-best performance from the terrific actor James Stewart.

Toss-up between Vertigo and North by Northwest. Though I have to confess to a weakness for Family Plot (not his best film, but a totally enjoyable final film)
