'''''Marnie''''' is an Creator/AlfredHitchcock Film staring Tippi Hedren as [[CharacterTitle Marnie]] and SeanConnery.

Marnie is considered the last film of a significant era in Hitchcock's career. It was his last use of a "Hitchcock blonde" as a main character. It was the last time he worked with Robert Burks (director of photography), Bernard Herrmann (music composer) and George Tomasini (editor). All three had been key members of Hitchcock's film crews since the 1950s. Tomasini died in 1964, Burks in 1968. Herrmann survived to 1975. But by 1966, Hitchcock felt his music was becoming outdated and some of his music themes too reminiscent of each other (the fact that Hermann went on to compose the iconic score for TaxiDriver before his death undermines this a little). He had Herrmann fired. With all these elements missing, Hitchcock's later films had a rather different feel to them.
