PREVIEW: Hitchcock


Our last film of April is the new film about Alfred Hitchcock.  Hitchcock has a face which is immediately recognisable to audiences the world over.

This is a film which shows off Alfred Hitchcock’s extraordinary film career often obscured his creatively explosive romance with his steadfast wife and filmmaking collaborator, Alma Reville, revealed now through the sly, shadowy lens of their most daring filmmaking adventure: the making of the spine-tingling 1960 thriller Psycho, which would become the director's most controversial and legendary film. When the tumultuous, against-the-odds production was over, nothing about movies would ever be the same - but few realised that it took two to pull it off.

Be sure not to miss a fantastic film, Helen Miriam, Anthony Hopkins and Scarlett Johansson provide audience with rich performances through a riveting and articulate screenplay.

*This narrative directing debut by Sacha Gervasi remains absorbing and aptly droll despite a few dramatic ups and downs and, led by large performances by Anthony Hopkins and Helen Mirren.*
