EN 452 Alfred Hitchcock’s American Films

This is an intensive study of the major film works of one of the best 20th century studio directors, Alfred Hitchcock. Focusing on the cinema produced in his American period, 1943-1963, the course guides students through discussion and analysis of such important films as Shadow of a Doubt, Strangers on a Train, Rear Window, Vertigo, Psycho, and The Birds, examining them both as works of cinematic art and as documents reflecting the culture of mid-century America.
