But it started out as a very different kind of project. In this Devil's Advocate, British horror expert Ian Cooper discusses the evolution of the film, its production, reception and place in Hitchcock's oeuvre, and its status as a key film of 'sleazy Seventies' British cinema, as well as reclaiming Hitchcock as a horror director." - taken from back cover.Notes: Includes bibliographical references.ISBN: 9781911325369Contents: Amuse-bouche -- The Starter -- Entree -- Main Course -- Last Supper -- Bibliography

Hitchcock and adaptation : on the page and screen / edited by Mark Osteen Lanham, Maryland: Rowman & Littlefield, c2014.

Some of these essays look at adaptations through a specific lens, such as queer aesthetics applied to Rope, Strangers on a Train, and Psycho, while others tackle the issue of Hitchcock as author, auteur, adaptor, and, for the first time, present Hitchcock as a literary source. Film adaptations discussed in this volume include The 39 Steps, Shadow of a Doubt, Lifeboat, Rear Window, Vertigo, Marnie, and Frenzy. Additional essays analyze Hitchcock-inspired works by W. G. Sebald, Don DeLillo, Bret Easton Ellis, and others.
These close examinations of Alfred Hitchcock and the creative process illuminate the significance of the material he turned to for inspiration, celebrate the men and women who helped bring his artistic vision from the printed word to the screen, and explore how the director has influenced contemporary writers. A fascinating look into an underexplored aspect of the director’s working methods, Hitchcock and Adaptation will be of interest to film scholars and fans of cinema’s most gifted auteur. -- Extract from the back of bookNotes: Includes filmography -- Includes bibliographical references, filmography and indexISBN: 9781442230873Contents: Part 1.

A Hitchcock Reader grows out of the editors' desire as classroom teachers for a comprehensive and critical text in introductory or advanced courses devoted to the director's films. Yet the book should also satisfy scholars by providing an updated anthology representing the rich variety of critical responses that Hitchcock's films have evoked over the years." "This new edition of A Hitchcock Reader aims to preserve what has been so satisfying - and successful - in the first edition. This new edition, however, will update scholarship since publication of the first edition; offer entirely new editorial matter, including a general introduction to the volume; more visuals; and comprehensive bibliographies of suggested readings, references, and works cited."--BOOK JACKETNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9781405155564Contents: Preface -- Introduction -- Part One: Taking Hitchcock Seriously [Section Intro and Bibliography] -- 1.
