Film Review – Hitchcock

After a thorough peeling in last month's unexpectedly bitter HBO
offering, "The Girl," the life and times of cinema's reigning master of
suspense returns to the screen in the appropriately titled "Hitchcock."
Although the mood has been considerably lightened from the cable
offering, "Hitchcock" remains equally troubled when it comes to the
internal workings of the filmmaker, once again wading into the vast
reservoir of the man's neuroses to decode how such a distanced,
manipulative pop culture figure and industry legend went about his daily
business during a particularly stressful stretch of his career. The
results are entertaining and capably acted, but true insight remains at
arm's length, despite a feature cooking up all sorts of ghoulish visions
and barely concealed jealousies. Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
