Overview

Marnie is a beautiful but emotionally withdrawn thief, stealing from employers before disappearing under new identities. When her new boss, Mark Rutland, discovers her secret, his fascination turns to obsession, and he blackmails her into marriage, convinced he can cure her. But as he probes deeper into Marnie’s fractured mind, long-buried fears and compulsions begin to surface.

Viewing Notes

I love the opening scene in particular as well as a dolly pullback shot later in the movie that starts as a closeup of one character and then pulls back to finally show all three characters standing at different distances from the camera; really great camerawork. Bernard Herrmann’s score is also excellent.
