Description

Decades after Alfred Hitchcock’s death, his work continues to draw passionate responses and critical acclaim. With Hitchcock’s Magic, Neil Badmington takes a new look at Hitchcock’s body of work to try to figure out just what it is that makes them so lasting—and why their influence has been so pervasive. Featuring detailed analyses of a number of Hitchcock’s most successful films, including Psycho, Rear Window, and The Birds, and drawing on the insights of poststructuralist theory, Hitchcock’s Magic is an innovative contribution to the never-ending discussion of the master of suspense.
