Within 50 pages we’ve made it through the drudgeries of family history, read 5 early Hitchcock stories in their entirety, and are officially at the point where he is beginning to make films, yet all of this background still feels comprehensive, nothing significant seems to have been glossed over. Very much enjoying this so far.

Really appreciating the discussion of Foreign Correspondent and its criticism of American neutrality during the start of WWII. Also appreciating just how many masterpieces Hitchcock released in such a short span of time. It must have been so exciting to follow his career as it happened.

Devastating moment here where Hitch is identified in the American press as being a really fat son of a bitch.
