The 39 Steps (1935) - Hitchcock really was a genius director wasn't he? A total arsehole of a man by many accounts but a genius director. Watched with Number Two Daughter who mentioned the other day she had never seen any of his films. As I'm reading the book at the moment (which is awful, and taking me far longer to finish than it should because it is) this seemed an ideal place to start. She enjoyed it immensely. I had forgotten how funny it was and, as I deliberately didn't mention the fact that scenes were shot just up the road from where we live, the sudden appearance of familiar local scenery came as a pleasant surprise to her as well.
