Come back to the year 1964 for an interview with Hitch himself. This conversation initially appeared on the '60s CBC program Telescope, with director Fletcher Markle pinning down the genial horror maestro for some very interesting insights. Hitchcock discusses his early career path, beginning as an editor for silent-movie title cards and nearly stumbling into assistant director and director positions. Other topics include the difficulties of wrangling 28,000 birds for The Birds, the infamous shower scene from Psycho (78 separate camera shots in 45 seconds), and the closing scenes of Shadow of a Doubt (the director's personal favorite). More revealing, however, are Hitchcock's takes on the building blocks of film language and theory (Arbogast's death in Psycho is dissected by the director). He also discusses the impact of horror films on society and their influence on behavior; his remarks are still fresh and relevant today. Composer Bernard Herrmann is also interviewed and delves into his relationship with Hitch and the particular way that they cooperated in scoring his films. This should be of interest not only to Hitchcock fans and students, but to anyone who's a fan of horror and suspense genres in general. The auteur is captured in his '60s prime, in an unusually candid setting. --Jerry Renshaw
