[Andrew Klynsmith · Rating 3 out of 5]

A good intro to each of Hitchcock's films, and a good overview of the development of his film making in distinct periods. I especially like his treatment of the masterpieces from 1958 to 1964 (Vertigo, North by Northwest, Psycho, The Birds and Marnie. There were lots of stills from the films, and shots showing the wider production.
