"filmfan3" (New York City) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: To Catch a Thief (Special Collector's Edition) (DVD) After reading the gushing, swooning review from the DVD critic in last Tuesday's NY Times, I immediately ordered the "Special Collector's Edition" of TO CATCH A THIEF from Amazon. When it arrived, I compared it to my original Paramount "Widescreen Edition" from 2002. Well, the critic was right--there's simply no comparison.

This version will certainly replace my original copy. 44 of 45 people found the following review helpful By This review is from: To Catch a Thief (The Centennial Collection) (DVD) Beautiful, well-casted and a classic romantic, suspenseful thriller from Alfred Hitchcock.VIDEO & AUDIO: "TO CATCH A THIEF" looks great for a 1955 film on DVD.
