Universally despised on its first release, Marnie remains one of Alfred Hitchcock's greatest and darkest achievements.

When her new boss, Mark Rutland, discovers her secret, his fascination turns to obsession, and he blackmails her into marriage, convinced he can cure her.

Marnie is the character study of a thief and a liar, but what makes her tick remains clouded even after a climax reckoned to be shocking but somewhat missing its point.

It's still thrilling to watch, lush, cool and oddly moving.

Keith Phipps, AV Club
Rotten
At once a fascinating study of a sexual relationship and the master's most disappointing film in years.
