Riassunto

The film tie in paperback edition of this iconic film book, to celebrate the release of the major feature film, HITCHCOCK. The film stars Anthony Hopkins, Helen Mirren as Hitchcock's wife, Alma Reville, and Scarlett Johansson as Janet Leigh. Charted here for the first time is the story of one of the true landmarks in the history of horror movies, from its grisly conception to its dramatic aftermath. Rebello takes us behind the scenes, drawing upon Hitchcock s private files, and in-depth interviews with the stars, writers and technical crew, to give a unique and unparalleled view of the master at work.

Su questo libro

Recensione:

Meticulously researched and irresistible...required reading not only for Psycho-philes, but for anyone interested in the backstage world of movie creation. --Anthony Perkins

Stephen Rebello's enthralling 1990 account, Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho, is at heart the story of a marriage. 'What if someone good made a horror picture?' asks Alfred Hitchcock of his wife Alma Reville early on in Sacha Gervasi's clever and witty drama about the making of Psycho. It was Psycho that so emphatically answered that question in 1960. --The Guardian
