_Notorious_ is my favorite Hitchcock film, and he’s quite good in it (especially in the very satisfying final scene). **Claude Rains films** 1. The Invisible Man (1933) 2. Casablanca 3. Notorious 4. The Man Who Watched the Trains Go By 5. Phantom of the Opera (1943) 6. Lawrence of Arabia 7. The Greatest Story Ever Told 8. The Lost World 9. Here Comes Mr. Jordan (1941) 10. Mr. Smith Goes to Washington Pass. ---
