This thriller, based on a best-selling novel by Wilson Graham, revolves around a pathological liar and compulsive thief (Tippi Hedren) who is befriended by her latest victim, Mark Rutland (Sean Connery). The core of the story concerns a wealthy man who marries a beautiful woman who steals from his business. Despite his sincere love, dashing looks, and wealth, some deep-seated neurosis makes her emotionally inaccessible, causing him to search her past for an explanation.

Recensie (3)
A very good psychological drama with some amazing scenes (in addition to the robbery, of course, the nerve-wracking ending with the horse and everything that comes after), an excellent performance by Tippi Hedren and a 100% romantic score by Bernard Herrmann. But if Marnie had been some 20 minutes shorter, I would have rated it even better.

Marnie has beautiful, passionate music by Bernard Herrmann and good acting performances, but the combination of a love story and a thriller falls flat. The essence of the story surprisingly slipped through Hitch’s fingers.

I probably never expected to find an adaptation of Winston Graham (otherwise the creator of the Poldark series) in Hitchcock's filmography. But it happened, and Hitchcock needed material for another film with Tippi Hedren, whom he was currently interested in. What more can I say? From The Birds onwards, Hitchcock was no longer enjoyable and his films were increasingly over the top. Marnie is just another improbable story that Hitchcock had rewritten so that he could play with his next Barbie. There’s no special experience to be had, and the styling, costumes, and make-up are at times unbearable (especially Connery's eyebrows).
