One is ravished by the density of insights into cinematic questions.Truffaut performed a tour de force of tact in getting this ordinarily guarded man to open up as he had never done before (and never would again).If the 1967 Hitchcock/Truffaut can now be seen as something of a classic, this revised version is even better.

A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

Iconic, groundbreaking interviews of Alfred Hitchcock by film critic Fran�ois Truffaut—providing insight into the cinematic method, the history of film, and one of the greatest directors of all time.

In Hitchcock, film critic Fran�ois Truffaut presents fifty hours of interviews with Alfred Hitchcock about the whole of his vast directorial career, from his silent movies in Great Britain to his color films in Hollywood. The result is a portrait of one of the greatest directors the world has ever known, an all-round specialist who masterminded everything, from the screenplay and the photography to the editing and the soundtrack. Hitchcock discusses the inspiration behind his films and the art of creating fear and suspense, as well as giving strikingly honest assessments of his achievements and failures, his doubts and hopes. This peek into the brain of one of cinema’s greats is a must-read for all film aficionados.
