Full shade area looking for bush or small tree

My front landscape area is about 13 feet wide and 9 feet deep. Most of the area is full shade, getting sun only very late in the day. I have two windows in front of my house and I would like to have something to plant in front of the window that is about 6-8 feet tall to provide some privacy. Currently we have a weeping cherry of some sort but its a the front of the landscape and is rather large and had been neglected for years before we moved in. The tree blocks everything behind it and thus we have removed everything else. We have decided to take the tree out as well as the only thing I really like about it is the privacy it provides to the front windows. I talked to our local nursery briefly and they suggested a hydrangea tree which are quit pricey (especially since this is only a small project of several we have). I love hydrangeas but I'm afraid they won't have enough sun. Any suggestions are appreciated
