I would agree with Spellbound and Marnie (Hitchcock in general) - the latter
film is maybe too directly psychoanalytic, but then again this is what makes
it a good example for students. Talking about Spellbound (whose dream
sequence relates to Dali and surrealism), films by Bunuel come to mind, Un
Chien Andalou the most typical. I would also think of Spellbound by
Polanski
