A full trailer has been released for My Name Is Alfred Hitchcock, Mark Cousins’ upcoming feature documentary set to arrive on screens in July through doc specialists, Dogwoof (UK).
This one has already been doing the rounds at various film festivals all over the world and finally lands on screens in a couple of weeks.
2022 marks the hundred-year anniversary of Alfred Hitchcock’s first feature – Number 13 (1922). A century on, Hitchcock remains one of the most influential filmmakers in the history of cinema. But how does his vast body of work and legacy hold up in today’s society? Mark Cousins, the award-winning filmmaker behind many other iconic cinema history documentaries, tackles this question and looks at the auteur with a new and radical approach: through the use of his own voice. As Hitchcock rewatches his films, we are taken on an odyssey through his vast career – his vivid silent films, the legendary films of the 1950s & 60s and his later works – in playful and revealing ways.
Dogwoof will release this in the UK on 21st July.
Here’s the trailer.
