The opening of the sect is not necessarily clear. The documentary is called Hitchcock and Truffau, but it is not a documentary of these two people, but interviews with many famous artists. The interview format was quite casual and relaxed, and the film review materials were mixed with the way of talking, and the switching was going on, looking back at the life of Hitchcock, the master of the film. The people interviewed and reviewed during the period were all great directors. As for interviews and exchanges, the issues are very complex, professional, emotional, and communication. Because of the large number of characters, each person's point of view is also from different people's personal understanding, and talked about their own opinions and feelings about the senior masters. These 12 great directors interviewed. Among them, Wes Anderson / Olivier Assayas / Peter Bogdanovic / Arnold Desprichin / David Finch / James · Gray / Alfred Hitchcock / Kurosawa Kiyoshi / Richard Linklater / Paul Schrader / Martin Scorsese / Francois Truffau. This does not include the people who appear in the expansion. Everyone is a movie guy with his own characteristics. The list is so long that it is almost three tables, but the most special one is Truffaut. Especially the feelings of communication. The friendship between Hitchcock and Truffau was surprisingly good. Before I knew about the dialogue between the two, it was hard to think of New Wave Truffau and the master of suspense Hitchcock. Sparks came, these two schools are really far apart. I thought that these two countries and video styles are completely different, there should not be too many intersections. So I thought that this documentary would focus on the exchanges between the two, and more about the content of the dialogue, but otherwise. The documentary is quite covered in rain and dew, and lists many people's feelings and talks, but the content is very plain and close to life. It just seems that the interspersed information film interviews are a bit messy, and there is no system to organize them. It's like an interview set.

Hitchcock/Truffaut quotes

  • Martin Scorsese: [Discussing "Psycho"] At that time, as it is now, we expect certain things. And it took storytelling at that time and said, "No, I'm not going to give you that. I'm going to give you something else. Because you think everything is so cool. You're at the end of the 50s, the 60s are going to look glorious to us." I think it was really important for who we were then. You have Vietnam. You have border revolution. You have everything that happened in the 60s. and the society has never been the same. That picture really touched upon that, I think, "Psycho". Of course, you want everything so neat and wrapped up. Well, life isn't like that.

  • Alfred Hitchcock: [Discussing "Psycho"] My main satisfaction is that film did something to an audience. I really mean that. In many ways, I feel my satisfaction in our art achieved something, often, mass emotion. It wasn't a message. It wasn't some more great performance. It wasn't a highly, appreciated novel that served the audience. It was pure film. People will say what a terrible thing to make and the subject was horrible. The people were small. There were no characters in it. I know all this. But, I know one thing: the use of filming construction of this story caused audiences all over the world to react and become emotional.
