Did you specifically want dual format? The older single format has an identical blu-ray and should be cheaper. I used to own it. It's an excellent quality BD.

I found the film interesting but painfully slow and rather unrewarding. I sold it after one watch.

The old release is more expensive and I prefer the dual-format cases. Also I chose it over the Criterion because it's meant to have more accurate colour-timing.

I don't like that version because it's called 'The Canton Godfather' and doesn't have the correct colour in some scenes.

Hate to say it but Frenzy is the best of the three. Not A+ Hitchcock, but well worth seeing.

Torn Curtain is OK, and has a couple of great scenes, The Trouble with Harry on the other hand is a lame duck from what I remember.

Haven't seen any of them, but been wanting to see Frenzy. It was just £1.90 + shipping £1.82 at amazon marketplace. Consider it a rental with keeping option :D (couldn't find it in the actual rental stores...)

Even if I do decide to buy it I'll have to wait until the New Year as my budget was blown on BDs.
