Product description

Product Description

A psychological mystery thriller from the master of suspense, Alfred Hitchcock. Kleptomaniac Marnie Edgar (Tippi Hedren), who moves from job to job and has a pathological fear of the colour red, is caught stealing by latest employer, Mark Rutland (Sean Connery). Instead of turning her over to the police, Mark forces Marnie to marry him, convinced that he can get to the bottom of her psychosis.

Amazon.co.uk Review

Both visually and psychologically, Marnie is crass in comparison with Hitchcock's peak achievement in Vertigo--although it shares some of that film's characteristic obsessive themes. Sean Connery, fresh from From Russia with Love, is a Philadelphia playboy who begins to fall for Tippi Hedren's blonde ice goddess only when he realises that she's a professional thief (she's come to work in his upper-crust insurance office in order to embezzle mass quantities). His patient programme of investigation and surveillance has a creepy, voyeuristic quality that's pure Hitchcock, but all's lost when it emerges that the root of Marnie's problem is phobic sexual frigidity, induced by a childhood trauma. Luckily, Sean is up to the challenge, as it were. Not even DH Lawrence believed as fervently as Hitchcock in the curative properties of sexual release. --David Chute

    5.0 out of 5 stars " You Freud, me Jane."
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 November 2017

    The mystery of Marnie is the mystery of all Hitchcock’s women, outwardly they are frigid, their sexuality is concealed. Hitchcock’s technique is the process of discovering what is underneath. He gets to this inner fire in the course of the story, through devised love scenes, and the manner they are played, which brings from the woman this ‘heat’. The director holds in his power the image, the angle, everything else. Hitchcock’s method is to put us in a trance state induced by this obsessionality.He also took women who were in control of their lives and put them in a situation of upheaval to see how they survived. Marnie (Hedren) is outwardly sophisticated, given to changing her hair colour, clothes from one crime to the next, and rapidly moving on, stashing the money in suitcases, having different social security cards. She only uses her real name when she visits her mother. There’s this mystery behind the girl centred on her childhood, where something traumatic happened, freezing her sexuality. She feels unloved by her mother and tries to buy her love by giving her money.

    Mark Rutland (Sean Connery) has a fetish: he studies wild animal instinct, especially of predators. He also trained a wild cat to trust him. He’s attracted to Marnie because she thieves (as well as fallen in love).He has to win her trust. She’s a criminal, but the circumstances that make her a criminal come from an accident in her childhood. Mark is interested in Marnie because she’s a thief and he wants to marry her. She’s strange and he equally is strange himself. The suspense in how these two people get together.Hitchcock revs up the suspense by opening with her carrying a yellow purse under her arm walking away with black hair to Hermann’s music. We move to the scene of the crime and a man who runs the firm describing the ‘skirt covering her legs… like a national treasure.’ She transforms from black to blonde hair, changes her costume. Of course it’s worth reminding ourselves Connery here exudes a sexual magnetism (he’s between James Bond films).Hitchcock based the film on a Winston Graham book,doing some changes: transplanting the story to America, removing the psychologist (Connery takes this role: he wants to control her and cure her), drops the police.

    Marnie is trapped into marriage by Rutland, the head of the firm that employs her.Marriage gives Mark control, Marnie pragmatically complies (he’s rich, attractive);she’s trapped anyway, now Mark knows she’s a thief. Marnie thinks she’s smart enough to escape him like she has all other men. Mark uncovers her frigidity on their honeymoon, but he makes love with her vs. her will but she seems in a trance (she doesn’t like men). Mark literally penetrates her into love (and she lets him). Hitchcock makes a psychoanalytic case live, so the past is always present in their embodied actions. A cure is affected through love, to retrieve the real person. She is blackmailed out of her guilt. Marnie is strangely absent in the real world, both in scenes and out of them, in a world that’s hard to read (aided by artificial backdrops).There’s a variation in design and cinematic elements. Louis Latham as Marnie’s mother is exquisite, as the mother who’d been a prostitute as a single mother: her recall of a scene in Marnie’s childhood where she confesses in a late scene is remarkable. One of Hitchcock’s most underrated films brilliantly acted. Hedren is the star of the movie,( Connery is already a powerful star), mastering a range of voices between witty, sophisticated to childish (when she enacts her memories). The artistry of the film belies the underlying tragedy of the real world relationships.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Hitchcocks last great picture
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 October 2003

    Marnie is a misunderstood masterpiece from the Hitchcock. Often cited as an example of a messy, flawed genius - it can be off putting to some since its quite talky. However stick with it and you will be intrigued and itching to discover all about Marnie (contrary to what most say, played with understated brilliance from Tippi Hedren).
    The direction and cinematography is exceptional with Hitchcock and his usual crew i.e. Rob Burks etc on form. The atmosphere generated (apart from being 'Hitchcocky') is unique, dark, gloomy and at times akin to a horror film, yet it is utterly appealing and compelling. Theres an almost creepy, artificial humanless feel to proceedings as a result of the direction and how the actors have been directed to act as is briefly highlighted by a Hitchcock scholar in the documentary on the disk. Hitchcock knows the art of cinema, no flashy fast cuts or fast moving camera's as we see nowadays, but measured, inspired direction laced with flourishes of creative genius (thats Hithcock for you). Atmosphere, emotion is built up like poetry. Witness for example some moments of genius such as the final revelation, in what is one of Hitchcocks most underrated, powerful and shocking pieces of direction; the riding sequence which culminates in Marnies fantastic yet disturbing line of dialogue, " there there....", and also sinister momnets such as when Marnies mother wakes here from her nightmare- her voice disturbingly artificial in its lack of emotion and empathy for a clearly distraught Marnie.
    Speaking of the mother, Louise Latham -the actress behind the role effortlessly steals the show from an already superb Hedren and Connery. Latham eleicits an absolutely breathtaking performance. Her character is frighteningly creepy, tragic, powerful and marvellously played to keep up the suspense and intrigue. You don't know what to make of the character except of the fact she knows or has played a part in Marnies psychological condition. In fact I would go as far as to say it is one of the greatest performances in a Hitchcock picture - an example of genius casting. Similarly her character is arguably the greatest 'mother' character in any Hitchcock film beating Pyscho and Notorious' madame Sebastion.
    Marnie is a truly great picture and definetly Hitchcocks last great although Frenzy is a nice enough distraction. Not as good as Vertigo or Rear Window but certainly up there in the higher echelons of Hitchcocks work.
    The DVD is exceptional - pretty much a carbon copy of the region 1 copy except for one flaw: aspect ratio. The films has been cropped for 4:3 which is disappointing since its US counterpart is framed correctly at 1:85:1. The picture quality is pleasing though, but hasn't been remastered. The DVD does contain the documentary: 'The Trouble with MArnie' which goes some way to make up for the disappointment. Even with this flaw its a worthwile purchase since this film was only re-released a few months back hence we probably won't get a properly framed version for the foreseeable future.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Hitchcock's Freudian Adventure
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 February 2013
    Verified Purchase
    Marnie is typically Hitchcockian, in that is full of suspense and female angst, yet is is also a film that would stand up to a psychoanalytic assessment, since the acting out and unconsciously driven behaviours are embedded in trauma from the past, involving the female lead and her mother. Since mother's shame prevents her from releasing her (now grown up daughter) from the repetition-compulsive element of her daughter's behaviour, her daughter is in thrall to her mother. Her trauma has locked her into a need to make attempts at reparation to her mother, for the loss of active use of one of her legs, by attempting to provide for her in a financial way, which is far beyond her capacity. As such, she engages in deception and theft at companies she works for, in an unconsciously driven way. This is confirmed, most markedly when, having married a rich man, she remains in thrall to the compulsion to steal
    Of course, since this is Hitchcock, there is a handsome man there to release her from her trauma. In this case, it is the hugely attractive (at the time) Sean Connery. He and Tippi Hedren make a credible pair. Indeed, all characters are locked into a kind of obsessiveness. How interesting that now we know that the biggest obsessive was Hitchcock himself.
    Yet Hitchcock was a great film maker. The film grips throughout and confirms to me as strongly as ever, that Freud was a genius.

    I love movies. I love Hitchcock movies. I'm 65 years old and had never seen Marnie. We decided to add it to our Hitchcock collection and purchased it on Blu-ray. We were pleasantly surprised by this movie. It comes from a time when psychological thrillers were topical. It has those Hitchcock touches. It was also the last Hitchcock film to star a blonde in a lead role.

    I was a little boy when this film first came out. I saw it with my Mom and sister and a friend at the drive-in. I didn't understand it all. Sean Connery is so sexy and powerful in this film. He was just a breath away from becoming a superstar in James Bond films. Tippi Hedren is excellent. She gave a remarkable performance. Louise Latham who plays Marnie's mother was outstanding. (she was a young woman who played older).
    This film is a psychological thriller. Sean Connery is bent on understanding what happened to Marnie to cause her to become a thief, liar, and frigid. Originally, Grace Kelly agreed to do this film. She was then Princess of Monaco and decided to come back. Then she changed her mind. Hitchcock gave Tippi a big chance but began trying to control her, run her life, and sexually harassed her. She did not give in to his sexual advances and he ruined her career. He had her under contract. She received marvelous film offers and Hitchcock turned them all down and would not release her. She should have sued.

    "Marnie" ist Hitchcocks Beitrag zum Thema "Kleptomanie" und leitete nach seinen Riesenerfolgen mit "Psycho" und "Die Vögel" eine Dreier-Riege von Filmen ein, die weder beim Publikum noch bei der Kritik sehr gut wegkamen. Nach dem psychologischen "Marnie" kamen die Spionagefilme "Der zerissene Vorhang" und "Topas". Erst mit "Frenzy" verbuchte der Meister wieder einen Welterfolg. Heute ist aber vor allem "Marnie" wieder als damals unerkanntes Meisterwerk rehabilitiert, damals bemängelte die Kritik die überholte Psychologie des Thrillers und ärgerte sich über die veraltete und unfreiwillig komische Tricktechnik - das Haus in der Hafenstraße, wo Marnies Mutter wohnt, hat als Hintergrund ein großes Schiff, das man sofort als gemaltes 2D-Bild erkennt. Heute sorgen vielleicht gerade diese schrägen Eigenheiten für einen sehr eigenständigen Charakter des Films. Es geht dabei um das Trauma der geheimnisvollen Marnie Edgar (Tippi Hedren). Die Frau arbeitete unter falschem Namen bei dem Steuerberater Sidney Strutt (Martin Gabel) in Philadelphia und raubt schon nach 4 Monaten den Tresor aus. Sie verschwindet mit dem Geld. In einem Hotelzimmer wäscht sie sich die dunkle Farbe aus den blonden Haaren und zieht sich anders an. Hitchcock gewährt dabei dem Zuschauer einen Blick auf Marnies Visitenkarten - jedesmal ist ein anderer Name darauf zu lesen. Keine Frage: Diese Frau macht dies nicht zum ersten Mal. Nach jedem Coup reist sie aber zu ihrer Mutter Bernice (Louise Latham) nach Baltimore. Sie wil der Mutter gefallen und bringt ihr als Geschenk eine Nerzstola mit. Doch da ist etwas zwischen Mutter und Tochter, was sich durch die Präsenz des Nachbarkindes Jessie Cotton (Kimberley Beck) noch verstärkt. Nach dem Austausch diverser Höflichkeiten fragt Marnie "Was hast Du gegen mich, Mama ?" Ihren Vater hat Marnie nie kennengelernt. Die Mutter selbst hat sich in die Religion geflüchtet. Wirklich glücklich ist Marnie nur, wenn sie ihr Pferd ausreiten kann, dass auf einem nahegelegenen Gestüt untergebracht ist. Marnie plant danach wieder einen Raub. Dazu bewirbt sie sich beim Rutland Verlag in Philadelphia. Als Mary Taylor wird sie als Sekretärin eingestellt. Der Verleger Mark Rutland (Sean Connery) ahnt sehr bald, dass es sich bei der neuen Arbeitskraft um die selbe Frau handelt, die seinen Steuerberater Strutt um viel Geld erleichtert hat. Dabei erweist sich Mark als raffinierter Beobachter, der gerne herausfindet, warum die attraktive Frau zur Diebin wird. Er lässt es sogar zu, dass Marnie 10.000 Dollar aus dem Tresor entwendet und trotz der Eifersucht seiner Schwägerin Lil (Diane Baker) zwingt er Marnie dazu seine Frau zu werden...Natürlich wird irgendwann am Ende der Fall gelöst und der Zuschauer erfährt alles über das Trauma eines Kindes, dass sich nie lösen liess und sie als Erwachsene zur kriminellen Kranken werden liess. Auch wenn sie immer mal wieder für ihre Darstellerleistung kritisiert wurde, aber Tippi Hedren ist für mich die perfekte Besetzung für diese Rolle und sie spielt die Figur Marnie einfach fesselnd. Ihr zur Seite ein nicht weniger überzeugender Sean Connery, der als Mark ebenfalls seine dunklen Seiten hat. Er will Macht und Gewalt ausüben und zwingt sie erpresserisch in den Hafen der Ehe. Dies führt dann auch beinahe zur Katastrophe, kein Wunder bei dieser Holzhammer-methode. Ansonsten lebt der Film von einer Atmosphäre, die wie ein Fiebertraum wirkt und am Ende eine Erlösung aufzeigt. Man fragt sich aber, ob die emotionalen Qualen damit dann wirklich gelöst sind, ein Stück weit endet der Film im Ungewissen. Für mich ein weiteres Hitchock Juwel.

    Marnie est avec Spellbound un des films les plus psychologiques d'Alfred Hitchcock. Le thème initial est d'ailleurs très similaire: Margaret Edgar, surnommée Marnie (Tippi Hedren) est une voleuse qui trouve dans ses actes (perpétrés aux dépends de ses employeurs) une échappatoire à la névrose qui la poursuit depuis l'enfance. Elle a en effet une peur panique du rouge, du blanc et de l'orage. Sa mère, une femme infirme vivant à Baltimore est la seule à connaitre la vérité concernant l'accident qui a provoqué son infirmité ainsi que la névrose de sa fille.

    Pour ma part, c'est un des mes films préférés d'Hitchcock tant par le choix des acteurs et l'ambiance que par la qualité du scénario.
    Comme le dit François Truffaut, Marnie fait partie des grands films malades d'Alfred Hitchcock:

    "Un certain degré de cinéphilie encourage parfois à préférer dans l'oeuvre d'un metteur en scène, son "grand film malade"à son son chef-d'oeuvre"
