This is not Hitchcock's entire life trajectory. It is just based on Hitchcock's later years from the peak of his career to the bottom of his career, mortgaging his family property to shoot "Psycho" alone as an entry point. While dealing with the tangled housework of his wife's derailment, he worked hard and devoted himself to the filming scene where he lost his inspiration. In the case that everyone was not optimistic and regarded Hitchcock as an outdated director, Hitchcock survived the difficult years like a rebirth from ashes, and finally joined hands with his wife who turned back to turn the bad film. Recut to make the film once again a brilliant piece of the thriller box-office miracle.

The film is based on the 1998 non-fiction book of the same name, directed by documentary filmmaker Sasha Jevasi. Anthony Hopkins and Helen Mirren play the Hitchcock couple. Hopkins's spherical body profile, arrogant eyes that ignore everything, artificial mouth, plus the hobby of voyeurs, can Said to have reached a type similar to Hitchcock's 9. Although Scarlett Johansson did not deduce Hitchcock's blonde to the level of sultry, she also achieved sheer sexiness. It is just pure curiosity about the anecdotes of the suspense master, not the audience who is curious about suspense. This film is enough to understand the master's private life.

Hitchcock, a British master of suspense, has worked hard for decades in the United States and created a precedent for thriller and suspense films with his unique style of filming. However, due to indiscreet personal habits and advanced thriller plots, Few has been recognized by Hollywood for a long time, and has been hovering around the Oscars for a long time. Not even a film has won any golden statuettes, only the curtain call of the Lifetime Achievement Award. Maybe it's because the thriller is never popular with the public, and it is difficult to enter the mainstream vision, or it may be because the character determines the luck, which makes the assiduous masters regret for life. One of the most worthy of the attention of mainland filmmakers is that Hitchcock negotiated with the reviewers for the film's limited shots, bargained with the official as a master, and finally both sides made concessions, which is very worthwhile for those just Lengtouqing film and television people who graduated from colleges and universities have learned an important skill other than filming.

    The point is the Hitchcock couple. While Hopkins tried his best to imitate the iconic moves, he couldn't avoid the stiff show and Hannibal's accent. Mirren is a good wife, but there's a limit to putting up with such a quirky old man. Psychopath is a classic masterpiece. Scarlett's stunning appearance is nothing like a Hitchcock girl. The one who played Perkins was very strange. Biographies are hard to make.

    Three and a half. Hopkins's performance makes Xi fat and cute even more. Scarlett can really blur the beauty of the age. Except for the husband and wife, the performance space for other characters is really small, with a little horror for the elderly family comedy.

Hitchcock quotes

  • Alfred Hitchcock: If this picture fails, Alma, we'll be in for a long, humiliating bout of crow-eating.

    Alma Reville: It'll be splendid.

    Alfred Hitchcock: Are you sure?

    Alma Reville: Of the movie? Not at all. But of you? Unquestionably.

  • [last lines - talking to camera]

    Alfred Hitchcock: And so, gentle viewers, Psycho turned out to be one of my greatest achievements, and Alma and I got to keep the house and the swimming pool. But you know what they say in Hollywood: "you're only as good as your last picture". So if you will excuse me, I had better toddle away to begin the exhaustive search for my next project. Unfortunately I find myself once again quite bereft of any inspiration. However, I do hope something comes along soon.

    [a large black raven lands on his shoulder and then flies away]

    Alfred Hitchcock: Good evening.
