Participation in the shorts sub-list is optional. Only those films listed below under SHORTS AND TELEVISION WORKS are eligible. The minimum and standard number of submitted films and/or episodes for each participating member is 5, in ranked order (With number one being the best and so on down the line). SHORTS AND TELEVISION WORKS SUB-LIST RULES The final list will comprise of a Top 25, with supplemental recordings of also-rans and orphans, as in other list projects. Only those films listed below under FEATURE FILMS are eligible for voting. Members who submit only ten films and those who submit a maximum twenty titles will still be on even footing when it comes to the points assigned for the top ten (ie the film in their number one slot will be worth twenty points on everyone’s list). Hopefully this sliding scale of voting slots will result in a multitude of ballots from members with varying degrees of exposure to and comfort with Hitchcock's oeuvre. However, if you can’t bare to limit yourself to a mere ten titles, you may submit up to twenty ranked titles (ie 20 total max) or any variant number between ten and twenty (so yes, your list may contain thirteen films, but you assume your own unluckiness risks in doing so). The minimum and standard number of submitted feature films for each participating member is 10, in ranked order (With number one being the best and so on down the line). Everyone who can read this post is eligible to participate in this list and cast a ballot. No lists will be accepted before September 19th. Lists should be PMed to me, domino harvey, no later than November 5th. Especially well-considered write-ups, guides, and discussions in-thread will be linked below in the first post for ease of reference. And remember to share your insights with the rest of the board, and engage with the thoughts and takes of others. We are fortunate that so many of his works survive in excellent Blu-ray and DVD editions, with copious supplemental material, so let’s all take advantage of our collective good fortune and really have a long, hard look back at one of cinema’s unquestionable greats. Members are encouraged to weigh in on any and all of Hitchcock’s works during this project’s run, and take this opportunity to revisit as many of Hitchcock’s films as you can. If Rear Window is your favorite, don’t vote for Family Plot ahead of it just to skew the results for a film less likely to chart as high, unless of course you consider Family Plot a better film! Hopefully participation will be high for this list, so it’d be best if the results truly represented a survey of personal tastes and not iconoclastic pot-stirring. Individual lists should reflect your own personal preference- the goal is not to be cunning, but honest. We will be composing both a list of best features and a shorter supplemental list of shorts and television works. Our forum’s first auteur-based list will be covering the works of the master of suspense, Alfred Hitchcock.
