Hitchcock/Truffaut
In 1962, Francois Truffaut persuaded Alfred Hitchcock to sit with him for a week long interview in which the great British auteur would share with his young admirer the secrets of his cinema. Based on the original recordings of this meeting-used to produce the seminal book “Hitchcock/Truffaut”-this film illustrates the greatest cinema lesson of all time and plunges us ino the world of the creator of <em>Psycho, The Birds </em>and <em>Vertigo</em>.
Hitchcock's singular vision is elucidated and brought vividly to life by today's leading filmmakers: Martin Scorcese, David FIncher, Arnaud Desplechin, Kiyoshi Kurosawa, Wes Anderson, James Gray, Olivier Assayas, Richard Linklater, Peter Bogdanovich, and Paul Schrader.
