North By Northwest becomes last film to join the final four of the favorite Hitchcock film tournament

In the 60's era final match, North By Northwest (which got a waiver from me to play in this era due to a shortage of Hitch films for in this decade) easily defeated top seed Psycho 11-4 to earn the last spot of the final four. The film joins The Lady Vanishes (30's era winner); Rebecca (40's era winner); and Rear Window (50's era). I'm curious to see what would have happened if North By Northwest competed in the 50's era and if it battled Rear Window, which film would win. Those two films still could meet in the championship match. But let's see how the semi-final matches go first. The Lady Vanishes will take on Rear Window in match 1, while Rebecca squares off against North By Northwest in match 2. The final four starts immediately and these two matches will run thru Thursday 7 pm EST. Good luck to all four films.
