Hitchcock buffs, mark your calendars for March 12 2013. Debuting on Blu-ray from 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment is Sacha Gervasi’s biopic Hitchcock, starring Anthony Hopkins as the Master of Suspense. This one never really found an audience theatrically, grossing about $5.5 million in limited release. So this will be a good chance for people to discover the film that Rex Reed of New York Observer called “a knockout from start to finish.”

Also releasing March 12 is a three-disc Blu-ray set, AlfredHitchcock: The Classic Collection, which bundles together Notorious, Rebecca, and Spellbound. Each of these three Hitchcock classics has been available individually on Blu-ray since January of 2012, but if you never picked them up, The Classic Collection will save you a few bucks (retail: $59.99, current Amazon pre-order price as of 01/10: $41.99).
I can’t wait for this. I love Hitchcock!
Me too – missed this in theaters, looking forward to seeing it.
