Abstract

Alferd Hitchcock est le cinéaste qui a le mieux incarné le cinéma. Son nom est l'un des plus légendaires auprès du public. Consacrer une exposition à un cinéaste, et à fortiori le plus célèbre, est un pari audacieux mais légitime. Depuis une trentaine d'années, l'oeuvre fascine un nombre croissant d'intellectuels. Philosophes, historiens d'art et artistes contemporains ont puisé des stimulations nouvelles dans une création cinématographique dont les apparences spectaculaires ne paraissent plus en contradiction avec les emprunts à la culture savante, littéraire et picturale. Les films d'Alfred Hitchcock, tout en demeurant des divertissements, se sont imposés selon une conception du cinéma élargie aux autres arts et aux mystères de l'âme. C'est cette double ouverture qui confère à l'oeuvre hitchcockien cette persistance romantique, cette allure symboliste, et cette marque surréaliste, héritages du XIXe siècle entretenus au cours du XXe siècle.

Abstract

Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window is one of the icons of American filmmaking. A perfect example of Hollywood cinema at its best, it is an engaging piece of entertainment as well as a fascinating meditation on the nature of the film itself. A suspense thriller about a chair-bound observer who suspects his neighbor of murdering his wife, the narrative becomes the vehicle for Hitchcock's exploration of the basic ingredients of cinema, from voyeurism and dreamlike fantasy, to the process of narration itself. This volume provides a fresh analysis of Rear Window, which is examined from a variety of perspectives in a series of essays published here for the first time.

Abstract

"Alfred Hitchcock is one of the few filmmakers to combine a strong reputation for high-art filmmaking with great mass-audience popularity. This introduction to his oeuvre provides an overview of a long and prolific career. David Sterritt examines, among other issues, the varied influences on his work; the themes that run through many of his films; the overlooked importance of his presence within his films, including his famous cameo appearances and the characters who "represent" him within the story; his fascination with performance and the ambiguities of illusion and reality; and the question of viewing the filmmaker and his work through the auteur theory. Also discussed is the relationship between Hitchcock as a serious, even tormented, artist and Hitchcock as a magician with a weakness for cinematic practical jokes. Sterritt then provides in-depth analysis of key Hitchcock films: Blackmail, his first talkie; Shadow of a Doubt, one of his personal favorites; The Wrong Man, which questions the nature of guilt and innocence; Vertigo, arguably his most profound work; Psycho, his most savage look at the nature of evil; and The Birds, his last masterpiece and one of his most widely misunderstood films."--Jacket.
