 DVD Review - Marnie   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Marnie (Tippi Hedren) is a pathological thief and a compulsive liar.
But to being with all that, Marnie will have to open up to him, something that she is incapable of doing despite Mark’s repeated attempts to prove his sincere love for her.
On the other hand the conflict Marnie is fighting out within herself is as powerful as anything else and the viewer is constantly trying to figure out what happened to her, and what she will do next.

 Synoptique - The Construction of the “Hitchcock Blonde” : in MARNIE (1964)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Marnie is often caught up in this montage network of gazes, objects, and focused attention, and I would argue that the variations of this filmic relay occur around and in regards to Marnie preponderantly, and in correspondence—though not always clearly definable—with the fluctuating positions she occupies within the narrative.
Here, Marnie’s movements are monitored by the male stable hands—before cutting to a shot of Marnie and Forio galloping off in the distance, a shot of the unnamed (and unimportant as a character) stable hand watching Marnie intently as she rides off is held just long enough to strike one as uncomfortably or surprisingly over-long.
Marnie’s every move, it would seem, is monitored, and even her own perspective, her own POV shots, are controlled, as it were, by a relay of gazes that fix her as the object.

 Marnie - Synopsis - Moviefone
Tippi Hedren plays Marnie, a compulsive thief who cannot stand to be touched by any man. She also goes bonkers over the sight of the color red.
After innumerable plot twists and turns, Marnie is "cured" by a facile but mesmerizing flashback sequence involving her ex-hooker mother (Louise Latham).
Among the critical carps aimed at Marnie was the complaint that the studio-bound sets -- particularly the waterfront locale where the film ends -- were tacky and artificial; curiously, this seeming "carelessness" adds to the queasy, off-setting mood that Hitchcock endeavored to sustain.

 Marnie: Collector's Edition (1964)
Add 1964's Marnie to the list of good Hitchcock movies that just don't do a lot for me. For the most part, I found the film to be moderately compelling, but it seemed more like stock Hitchcock and lacked much of the flair of his other efforts.
The entire thing is built up so heavily that when the revelation is revealed, it seems almost anti-climactic and predictable, and the fact that all of her issues and the things that trigger her "episodes" all clearly relate back to this one event stretches things.
The psychoanalytic bent of Marnie also means that we're "treated" to scenes in which her male pursuer Mark (Sean Connery) runs Marnie through a series of psychological exercises such as free association.

As Marnie herself puts it to him..."You've got a pathological fix on a woman who is not only an admitted criminal, but who screams if you come near her!"...Yup, lots of work to be done here to unlock the sins of the past.
It comes as no surprise that Marnie had a sordid sexual childhood and that is the reason for her dysfunction.
Tippi Hedren really shines in the picture as Marnie Edgar, a mentally troubled woman due to events that she has blocked subconsciously from her memory, and because of this repression, she is a martyr to a disease of fits and kleptomania.

She felt Marnie's burning eyes fixed on her face, and saw the eager interest with which she waited to hear what was coming, and it seemed to Lizzie as if she never could think of one word to say; but she could not bear to disappoint her, so she made her tongue move.
Marnie tossed and moaned in her sleep, and threw her hands about; and it was an hour before she opened her eyes.

This is Connery's American film debut, and he portrays his character's fascination with Marnie with a conviction that allows the psychological turmoil of the young woman to emerge.
The director wants to show the audience Marnie's world and fears, so he uses a range of innovative visual techniques--including awkward rear projections, flashes of color, and a menacing atmosphere of storms--to convey her troubled state of mind.
Marnie is obviously riding in front of a back-projection, as it freezes up as she approaches the wall.

 DVDBeaver.com - "Marnie" Review
Marnie Edgar (played by Tipp Hedren)is an extremely complex character.
Hitchcock himself discovered her in an NBC commercial, and immediately signed her to a contract, putting her initially in "The Birds".
It is quite easily forgiven when we have as many masterful, typical Hitchcockian vignettes, like Marnie robbing the safe in Marks office with the deaf cleaner around the corner.

Marnie Edgar (Tippi Hedren) is a troubled young woman who has an unnatural fear and mistrust of men, thunderstorms and the color red.
When Marnie was six years old, one of her mother's clients (a sailor played by Bruce Dern) had tried to calm her after she became frightened by a storm.

There's a closeup of Marnie's hands near the beginning of the movie, and she's wearing pink nail polish.
Some people told me they think the scene of Marnie freaking out when she gets red ink on her blouse was gratuitous, but I think that was the best use of red and of freaking-out.
It makes lots of sense that Marnie would be unnerved by seeing a red stain on her clothing, because the whole reason she's scared of red is the blood on the sailor's shirt.
