Rear Window

Vertigo
Dial M For Murder (also in 3D)
all in color and a few lesser films that were none-the-less fun movies, Family Plot, Marnie, The Trouble With Harry.
See, if you make too many B&W movies that are excellent some folks will forget what you did in color.

But the point is that none of those with the
possible exceptions of
North by Northwest and
Rear Window are up to:
- Notorious
- Rebecca
- Shadow of a Doubt
- Suspicion
- The 39 Steps
- Stangers on a Train
and I could go on.
I have to add that the remake of
The Man Who Knew Too Much is pretty terrible.
