Podcasts about alfred hitchcock's notorious

Considered by some to be his best film, Alfred Hitchcock's Notorious comes to the mac in a beautiful 4k restoration. We explore its sumptuous close-ups, complex characterisation and smart, effective editing, which elicited big responses from the audience, and José tells us about Ben Hecht, the film's screenwriter. We also have an argument about focus pulling. On the blog, we've posted a number of clips and screenshots of moments and scenes to which we refer in the podcast: http://eavesdroppingatthemovies.com/2019/09/11/167-notorious/ Recorded on 8th September 2019.

It's Jack's host-pick week! So unsurprisingly this means the boys watched something really old and equally good, Alfred Hitchcock's Notorious.

In this episode, we discuss Alfred Hitchcock's Notorious (1946).  Starring Ingrid Bergman, Cary Grant, and Claude Rains, this film is a trademark example of Hitchcock's ability to balance suspense, romance, and trust to tremendous effect.  Join us for this unforgettable film.
