My Name Is Alfred Hitchcock (DVD)

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. Alternate trailer with narration by Mark Cousins | Audio of Alastair McGowan’s voice test | Cinema Q&A with Chuck Rose: Interview with Director Mark Cousins | Graphics animation tests | Mark Cousins introduces Notorious, Rope, and Saboteur
