Hitchcock's name is synonymous with suspense - that is to say, masterful, spine-tingling, thrilling, shocking, excruciating, eye-boggling suspense. With masterpleces such as Rebecca, Vertigo, Rear Window, and Psycho, Alfred Hitchcock (1899-1980) fashioned an extremely original approach to filmmaking that is oft imitated though never equaled; his ability to enthrall and frighten with careful pacing, subtlety, and suggestiveness earned him a prestigious reputation which grows more powerful as time goes by. He is and will always remain the master of cinematic suspense. This book, which traces his life and career, from his earliest silent films to his last picture in 1976, also includes a special bonus that Hitch fans will especially enjoy: an illustrated and annotated list of each of his cameos. Ik heb de afgelopen week 12 films van Alfred Hitchcock gezien. Ook de mindere films van hem zijn de moeite waard om naar te kijken. Daarom leek het me een goed idee om dit boekje over Hitchcock te lezen. In "Alfred Hitchcock" worden al zijn films besproken en uitgebreid geïllustreerd. Eigenlijk zou zo'n boekje een dvd moeten zijn, omdat je dan fragmenten kunt laten zien (door Mark Cousins meesterlijk gedaan in "The story of film") in plaats van alleen maar foto's. Aardig, maar niet bijzonder. Mijn favoriete films van Hitchcock zijn: - Rear window - Vertigo - North by Northwest Comment Alfred Hitchcock est-il devenu une institution ? Explication du maître en introduction à cette monographie : 'C'est nous [les réalisateurs] qui faisons le succès d'un film. Le nom d'un réalisateur doit être associé dans l'esprit du public à un produit de qualité. Les acteurs vont et viennent, mais le nom du réalisateur doit rester clairement gravé dans l'esprit du public.' Son levier pour parvenir à la reconnaissance ? La presse. Ce qui explique qu'il reste autant de documents. Photos de tournage, interviews compilées ici par le talentueux biographe et cinéphile reconnu, Paul Duncan. Voici un livre qui réjouira les fans d'Hitchcock. À noter que la richesse iconographique est remarquable. En noir et blanc ou en couleurs, le charme d'Hitchcock opère et l'on sent toute l'amitié qui le liait à ses acteurs (et aussi toute l'admiration que le réalisateur vouait à ses actrices). En 1955, sur le tournage de La Main au collet, Gary Grant embrassant Grace Kelly sous le regard attentif d'Hitchcock figure parmi les photos les plus cocasses que Paul Duncan ait sélectionnées. --Nathalie Robert-Poitout sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
