In Hitchcock’s Appetites, Casey McKittrick offers the first book-length study of the relationship between Hitchcock’s body size and his cinema. Whereas most critics and biographers of the great director are content to consign his large figure and larger appetite to colorful anecdotes of his private life, McKittrick argues that our understanding of Hitchcock’s films, his creative process, and his artistic mind are incomplete without considering his lived experience as a fat man. Using archival research of his publicity, script collaboration, and personal communications with his producers, in tandem with close textual readings of his films, feminist critique, and theories of embodiment, Hitchcock’s Appetites produces a new and compelling profile of Hitchcock's creative life, and a fuller, more nuanced account of his auteurism..

Jean Douchet fut, dans les années cinquante et soixante, l'un des premiers critiques en France à reconnaître en Alfred Hitchcock l'un des maîtres du cinéma, dont plus personne aujourd'hui ne conteste le génie. A l'époque, Hitchcock était encore largement considéré comme un artisan brillant au sein de l'industrie hollywoodienne, un simple réalisateur de " films de suspense ", genre qui n'avait pas encore conquis ses lettres de noblesse. A l'encontre de toutes les réserves émises sur son talent, dans la lignée des Cahiers du cinéma et de François Truffaut, qui publia à la même époque ses fameux entretiens avec Alfred Hitchcock, Jean Douchet démontre magistralement dans son ouvrage paru en 1967, pourquoi et comment Hitchcock est un immense auteur de cinéma : " Le titre de "maître du suspense", est volontiers décerné à Hitchcock, et il convient de l'envisager comme la principale définition de l'œuvre hitchcockienne. L'histoire de l'épée de Damoclès en est la plus célèbre illustration. Le suspense exprime la plus ancienne attitude philosophique. Il porte en lui la forme primitive de l'angoisse existentielle, car il est lié à un sentiment d'insécurité fondamentale. "

Alfred Hitchcock's American films are not only among the most admired works in world cinema, they also offer some of our most acute responses to the changing shape of American society in the 1940s, 50s, and 60s. The authors of this anthology show how famous films such as Strangers on a Train, Vertigo, North by Northwest, and Rear Window, along with more obscure ones such as Rope, The Wrong Man, and Family Plot, register the ideologies and insurgencies, the normative assumptions and the cultural alternatives, that shaped these tumultuous decades. They argue that, just as these films occupy a vi
