Mark Rutland gives a
nod indicating she should be hired when Marnie is interviewing for a job at a
publishing firm. He has seen
Marnie before when she worked at another company. He knows she stole money and left that job. Mark stops her when she steals from the
publishing firm. He forces her
marry him instead of running away like she always does. Mark has a private detective look into
her past and report back. He
believes something that happened to her as a child has caused her to
steal. She is terrified of
thunderstorms and the color red.
Marnie needs a lot of
psychological help but she won’t go to a doctor. I wasn’t sure that Mark’s loving her and working her would
be enough to help her? She seems
so cool, collected and sure of herself but inside she’s very troubled. 4* (I really liked this movie)

audience on Rotten Tomatoes, Amazon 4.3* out of 5* with 380 reviews.
Special
Note: Filmed in San Jose,
Universal City, California, Pennsylvania, Virginia, New Jersey and
Maryland. I saw while watching the
film The Girl, TV movie of 2012, that the last scene in this movie was the
first scene filmed. It is at a
train station in San Jose, California.
According to The Girl, Hitchcock was obsessed with Hedren and he called
her every night at home. He filmed
the scene with the birds attacking her in the house over and over until her
doctor recommended she take time off from the film.
