From the motel in Psycho and the bachelor pad in Rear Window to the blonde elegance of Tippi Hedren and Grace Kelly, this is the first book about Hitchcock to explore the great director's style, art direction, and use of fashion. Hitchcock's images reveal an aesthetic as vivid as his suspenseful subject matter. Featuring many of the actors, set and costume designers, cameramen, composers, and title creators from Hitchcock's inner circle, this stylistic study ends with a catalogue raisonné of Sir Alfred's entire oeuvre.. Jean-Pierre Dufreigne explores the world of Hitchcock, examining the director's unique atmospheric sensibilities

Wonderful Ana Carolina I Love it so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!The first book on Hitchcock, which is not a film book, but a book about style, decoration and fashion! The motel in Psycho. The bachelor pad in Rear Window. The blonde elegance of Tippi Hedren and Grace Kelly. 'Hitchcock style' is immediately identifiable and universally recognized. That’s because Alfred Hitchcock’s images, which have informed fashion, photography, and art as well as film, arise as much from . Connie said WONDERFUL. Another favorite for daughter at her request. "Enjoy The Pics-Forget The Text!" according to J. E. Avey. I wholeheartedly agree with the previous review! The book is LOADED with glaring errors! Enjoy The Pics-Forget The Text! I wholeheartedly agree with the previous review! The book is LOADED with glaring errors! 3 that come to mind: North By Northwest's famous cropdusting scene was set in Illinois, not Texas, which he mentions more than once. Grace Kelly did not die in 1979 and there is a great picture, elsewhere, of GK and "Hitch" at the function this author uses for a reference point of Hitch's dead friends and sad end of life, and he refers to Patricia Collinge as Josep. that come to mind: North By Northwest's famous cropdusting scene was set in Illinois, not Texas, which he mentions more than once.

Hitchcock was really the master of the universe. He had a control over the public that no one else had. --.Hitchcock Style arrives at a timely moment in fashion, as the return of '50s couture elegance continues. One no longer remembers why Janet Leigh stopped at the Bates Motel, nor the story of Notorious. Through objects. Neither Ingrid Bergman nor Cary Grant, but only a bottle of wine. One remembers a handbag, a key in the palm of a hand, a pair of glasses in which a crime is reflected, a windmill whose blades are turning backwards. This is not the case with Griffith or Welles or me. -
