Description

WhenHitchcock's Filmswas first published, it quickly became known as a new kind of book on film and a necessary text in the growing body of Hitchcock criticism. When Robin Wood returned to his writings in Hitchcock's films and publishedHitchcock's Films Revisitedin 1989, the multidimensional essays took on a new shape―one tempered by Wood's own development as a critic. This revised edition ofHitchcock's Films Revisitedincludes a substantial new preface in which Wood reveals his personal history as a film scholar―including his coming out as a gay man, his views on his previows critical work, and how his writings, his love of film, and his personal life have remained deeply intertwined through the years. This revised edition includes all eighteen original essays and a new chapter onMarnietitled "You Freud, Me Hitchcock: Does Mark Cure Marnie?"
