A century after Alfred Hitchcock's first film, he remains one of the most influential filmmakers in the history of cinema. But how does his vast body of work and legacy hold up in today's society? Mark Cousins, the award-winning filmmaker behind The Story of Film An Odyssey, The Eyes of Orson Welles, and The Storms of Jeremy Thomas, tackles this question and looks at the auteur with a new and radical approach through the use of his own voice. As Hitchcock rewatches his films, we are taken on an odyssey through his vast career - his vivid silent films, the legendary films of the 1950s and 60s and his later works - in playful and revealing ways.
An all-star cast headlined by George Segal (Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, It's My Party), Robert Vaughn (The Magnificent Seven, Bullitt), Ben Gazzara (Road House, The Big Lebowski) and E.G. Marshall (12 Angry Men) brings the glory and agony of war to stunning life in this exhilarating but uniquely human film. InchExcellent special effects, spectacular photography and fine action sequencesInch (Motion Picture Exhibitor) highlight the bravery of the courageous soldiers who fought this historic battle near the end of World War II.
