Caftan Woman Posted by on Jul 6, 2018
The site Maddy Loves Her Classic Films hosts The Second Annual Alfred Hitchcock Blogathon on July 6 and 7. Click HERE for the contributions. Thank you, Maddy.
By necessity, my discussion of Alfred Hitchcock's Stage Fright is not a spoiler-free zone. This is due to the fact that the very thing read more
Lifeboat (1944, Alfred Hitchcock)
The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on May 18, 2018
Lifeboat never feels stagy, which is one of the film’s greatest successes. The entire thing takes place in a single lifeboat, with director Hitchcock not doing many medium or long shots of the lifeboat exterior. All the action is with the actors, Hitchcock using distinctive composition–Glen MacWill read more

Durnmoose Movie Musings Posted by Michael on Feb 4, 2018
Since Sunday tends to be a day of quiet and reflection for many people, it seems an appropriate day to celebrate silent movies. But in keeping with the “day of rest” theme, I’m just going to post this without any commentary and just sit back and let you enjoy. read more

Alfred Hitchcock
Journeys in Classic Film Posted by on Sep 25, 2017
With a wealth of biographies out there it’s often difficult to differentiate yourself from the herd by finding someone new to say. A figure like Alfred Hitchcock, outside of being analyzed from a filmic standpoint, is an open book – pun intended – when it comes to research and info read more

Rear Window (1954, Alfred Hitchcock)
The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Jan 14, 2017
Rear Window is an absurdly good time. It’s breathtakingly produced and the set is a marvel on its own, but it’s also an absurdly good time. You’ve got Thelma Ritter chastising James Stewart not just for peeping, she also chastises him for not being serious enough about Grace Kelly. How could it read more

Alfred Hitchcock: A Brief Life (2016) by Peter Ackroyd
Classic Film Freak Posted by Greg Orypeck on Sep 8, 2016
Share This! A new biography of the iconic movie director, that “master of suspense” as he came to be known, but also a man of many complex faces, as this biography reveals. The last Hitchcock book reviewed in these columns, back in 2008, was Donald Spoto’s latest of at least his third take on read more

The 39 Steps (1935, Alfred Hitchcock)
The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Jul 7, 2016
There are numerous good moments in The 39 Steps. Even the clunky finale is a good moment–director Hitchcock knows he’s got a good moment, he just doesn’t know how to fill in around it. This inability on Hitchcock’s part makes The 39 Steps immediately interesting when compare read more
Vertigo (1958, Alfred Hitchcock)
The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Jun 14, 2016
Vertigo is a nightmare. It starts with James Stewart recovering from a nightmare only to find himself in another one. Kim Novak finds herself trapped in a similar nightmare. There’s a lot of beauty in the nightmare, but it’s still a nightmare. And nightmares get worse before anyone wake read more
Throwback Thursday – The Birds : Alfred Hitchcock’s Zombie Movie?
Durnmoose Movie Musings Posted by Michael on Mar 3, 2016
Between this blog and my previous one, Professor Damian’s Public Domain Treasure Chest, I’ve been writing about movies for quite a while now. Because of that, there are a lot of posts that have simply gotten lost to the mists of time. So, I figured I’d use the idea of “Throwb read more

Classic Movies Posted by KC on Feb 18, 2016
Unless the world learns the lessons these pictures teach, night will fall, but by God's grace we who live will learn.
In 1945, army cameramen documented the liberation of Nazi concentration camps across Germany and areas of Poland that were annexed by the Germans during World War II. Their mission read more
Everyday Horror: 5 Brilliant Episodes of ‘Alfred Hitchcock Presents’
Cinema Crossroads Posted by Julia on Oct 30, 2015
