1955 was a pretty good year for film, with the release of such classics as Rebel Without a Cause, Marty, The Night of the Hunter, Disney’s The Lady and the Tramp, and one of my personal favorites, Alfred Hitchcock’s To Catch a Thief.

I’ve put together a list of five of my favorite underrated films from 1955 — each from a different genre. Head over to Rupert Pupkin Speaks to read my list and others!
