Alfred Hitchcock Film Festival ‘ My Festival Finally’ 11 classics from the easter of suspense- all looking better than ever on the big screen in stunning digital! featuring Rebecca (1940); Spellbound (1945); Notorious (1946); Strangers on a Train (1951); Dial M fro Murder in 3D (1954); Rear Window (1954); To Catch a Thief (1955); Vertigo (1958); North By Northwest (1959); Psycho (1960); The Birds (1963). also included the Australian premiere screenings of the acclaimed documentary Hitchcock Truffaut. In 1962 Hitchcock and Francois Truffaut locked themselves away in Hollywood for a week to excavate the secrets behind the mise-en-scène in cinema. Based on the original recordings of this meeting—used to produce the mythical book Hitchcock/Truffaut—this film illustrates the greatest cinema lesson of all time and plummets us into the world of the creator of Psycho, The Birds, and Vertigo. Hitchcock’s incredibly modern art is elucidated and explained by today’s leading filmmakers: Martin Scorsese, David Fincher, Arnaud Desplechin, Kiyoshi Kurosawa, Wes Anderson, James Gray, Olivier Assayas, Richard Linklater, Peter Bogdanovich and Paul Schrader.
