Extractions: The legendary interview from 1963 PB: You never watch your films with an audience. Don't you miss hearing them scream? AH: No. I can hear them when I'm making the picture. Do you feel that the American film remains the most vital cinema? Worldwide, yes. Because when we make films for the United States, we are automatically making them for all the worldbecause America is full of foreigners. It's a melting pot. Which brings us to another point. I don't know what they mean when they talk about "Hollywood" pictures. I say, "Where are they conceived?" Look at this roomyou can't see out the windows. We might just as well be in a hotel room in London, or anywhere you like. So here is where we get it down on paper. Now where do we go? We go on location, perhaps; and then where do we work? We're inside on a stage, the big doors are closed, and we're down in a coal mine: we don't know what the weather is like outside. Again we don't know where we areonly within our film, within the thing we're making. That's why it's such nonsense to talk about locale. "Hollywood." That doesn't mean anything to me. If you say, "Why do you like working in Hollywood?" I would say, because I can get home at six o'clock for dinner.

Wilson Company: New York (1987), page 456: Both his [Hitchcock's] parents were Catholics, and he grew up in what he later depicted as a somewhat stifling atmosphere of working-class respectability and strict Catholic morality. "I was what is known as a well-behaved child..." ...Hitchcock's preoccupation with guilt may have been further developed by his education, from 1908 onwards, at St. Ignatius College, Stamford Hill, where the Jesuit fathers dispensed corporal punishment with pious rigor. "It wasn't done casually, you know. It was rather like the execution of a sentence . . . You spent the whole day waiting for the sentence to be carried out." Not that he was often in trouble...

Hopkins To Play Hitchcock Category: Miscellaneous - December 08, 2007 12:47 PM - Posted by: Norman Bates Sir Anthony Hopkins is to play movie mogul Alfred Hitchcock in a new biopic about the revered director. Hopkins insists he has been such a fan of the filmmaker's work over the years, he feels he's the right guy to portray his fellow Brit - and pay a proper tribute to him. Hopkins says, "I'm not one of those guys who went to film school and watched Hitchcock movies in order to study, but I admire people who know all about Hitchcock. I'm a real Hitchcock fan. I know all about the movies and had a closer look at why he set that shot up in the way that he did and the skill and rhythm of his movies like Rear Window and Vertigo. He was really quite astonishing and there's so much wit to his work. I think those scenes between Grace Kelly and Jimmy Stewart in Rear Window are so witty and sophisticated.

Extractions: Alfred Hitchcock film techniques The McGuffin was a key technique of Alfred Hitchcock's films, but what exactly was it? Look at his famous films and see how it works. Alfred Hitchcock is the undisputed master of suspense, yet what makes a Hitchcock film so special? What is the Hitch in a Hitchcock film? What is it that puts that creepy feeling on the back of your neck? Would you believe nothing? Hitchcock built some of his most suspenseful films around what he called âThe McGuffinâ which was, in effect, nothing. Over the years, the McGuffin has come to have a description formalized as: â A device or plot element that catches the viewerâs attention or drives the plot. It is generally something that every character is concerned with.â The McGuffin is essentially something that the entire story is built around and yet has no real relevance. Take the 1946 film Notorious, the story of an American agent who sends a woman to spy on her former lover (who happens to be a Nazi) as it is suspected they are plotting something sinister. As Hitchcock progressed through the years, his use of the McGuffin grew to a more refined and yet elaborate sense. In North by Northwest (1959) Hitchcock blatantly places the McGuffin in front of the viewer and yet he himself acknowledges that what you see is âhis emptiest, most nonexistent McGuffinâ. The plot of the film concerns espionage and a manâs (Cary Grant) mistaken identity as a spy. Halfway through the film, Grant is at an airport and finally has the opportunity to question a Central Intelligence Agent about what is happening to him:

Impossible to rank, so in no particular order, notable comedies among director Alfred Hitchcock's feature films, mostly from his golden period, when Hitch commanded total creative freedom and his biggest budgets, stars, and laughs. My only quibble is his epic, "North by Northwest," which climaxes on the faces of Mount Rushmore, didn't retain its original title: "The Man in Lincoln's Nose." The light-hearted romance of James Stewart and Grace Kelly takes a side seat to some peculiar happenings in the apartment building across the way. The wonderful Thelma Ritter provides extra fun as the trio attempts to solve "a murder?" in this richly satisfying tale and remarkable study of the connection between voyeurism and cinema. A true original, it has long been my favorite of ALL movies. Hitchcock's dream couple, Cary Grant and Grace Kelly, are involved in a cat burglar caper on the French Riviera. One of the lushest of Hollywood movies with expensive settings and a jewel of a script by John Michael Hayes. The witty dialogue is a joy to hear, almost musical, crackling with elegance and charm.
