The Films of Alfred Hitchcock

Alfred Hitchcock is probably the most famous film director who ever lived. For 5 decades, first in England, then in Hollywood, he made 54 films, including classics such as The 39 Steps, Rebecca, Notorious, Rear Window, North by Northwest, Vertigo, and Psycho. Few filmmakers have been as popular, critically celebrated, and as influential, not only as a director but also as a multimedia showman through his TV series, magazines, and book anthologies—even extending to board games and record albums.

Brian Rose, professor emeritus at Fordham University, looks at his achievements as the Master of Suspense and through dozens of film clips, examines his extraordinary creativity as one of the 20th century’s greatest filmmakers.
