Abstract

"Screenwriter and film archivist Steven DeRosa follows Hitchcock and Hayes through each film from initial discussions to completed picture and also reveals the personal story - filled with inspiration and humor, jealousy and frustration - of the initial synergy between the two men before their relationship fell apart. Writing with Hitchcock not only provides new insight into four films from a master but also sheds light on the mysterious process through which classic motion pictures are created."--Jacket.

Abstract

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. "

Abstract

"Hitchcock and twentieth-century cinema looks at the work, influences, legacy and style of one of cinema's most famous directors. Alfred Hitchcock worked in Britain and America, in silent and sound films, and through and beyond the studio system, all the time appealing to mass audiences while employing his own distinctive style. This book examines how he produced films that challenged key notions of acting, sexuality, mise-en-scene and narrative convention. It contends that Hitchcock can be seen as a matrix-figure who absorbed much of the first decades of cinema and in turn greatly influenced film noir, the French New Wave, and directors as innovative as David Lynch, Roman Polanski and Wong Kar-Wai, and whose legacy is still evident in the work of contemporary filmmakers all around the world."--Jacket.

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.
