Our New Year's resolution? Watch more Hitchcock in 2016
Sunday, January 10, 2016
On January 13, CineVerse will introduce an all-new series it calls Hitchcockronology: A Sequential Study of the Master of Suspense. Once a month throughout 2016, CineVerse will examine the artistry, style and themes prevalent in several major works directed by Alfred Hitchcock, starting with early pictures and progressing toward later movies in his filmography. Part 1, slated for January 13, will be “The Lodger” (1927; 68 minutes). Also, we'll screen the documentary “The Master's Touch: Hitchcock's Signature Style,” which cover’s the master's editing techniques, ideas about suspense, theory of the MacGuffin, his use of music, and his love of glamour and Hollywood blondes (58 minutes).
