This is a virtual program that will take place via Zoom. 

Alfred Hitchcock is probably the most famous film director who ever lived. For five decades, first in England, then in Hollywood, he made fifty-four films, including classics such as “The Thirty-Nine Steps,” “Rebecca,” “Notorious,” “Rear Window,” “North by Northwest,” “Vertigo,” and “Psycho.” Few filmmakers have been as popular, critically celebrated, and as influential. This presentation looks at his achievements as “the master of suspense,” and through dozens of film clips, examines some of his extraordinary techniques as a director.
