Hitchcock’s incredibly modern art is elucidated and explained by today’s leading filmmakers: Scorsese, David Fincher, Arnaud Desplechin, Kiyoshi Kurosawa, Wes Anderson, James Gray, Olivier Assayas, Richard Linklater, Peter Bogdanovich and Paul Schrader.

“I think of a book and a movie as two separate things. I don't think of it as my novel having a new life.”
