Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis is the first movie directed by Sir Alfred Hitchcock in which he makes one of his trademark cameo appearances. Here, it's as "Extra in Newspaper Office". A modern source also has him standing in a crowd as the leading man is arrested.
- Goofs(at around 24 mins) The Lodger (Ivor Novello) and Daisy (June Tripp) are playing a game of chess. The chess board is set up incorrectly, as the bottom-right square is black. This is most obvious when The Lodger is poking the coals in the fireplace.
- Crazy creditsClosing credits: Thank you to everyone who supported the BFI's Silent Hitchcock restoration project.
- Alternate versionsThe original version of The Lodger directed by Alfred Hitchcock in 1926 was restored in 1999 in honor of the directors 100th anniversary. The film was restored by the British National Film & TV Archives and a new score by Ashley Irwin was commissioned by ZDF/ARTE (Germany) and premiered on August 13, 1999 (what would have been Hitchcock's 100th birthday).

Featured review
The real Hitchcock is born
This is the first real Hitchcock movie. The one in which he really starts to use all his abilities, although we can see that they are still not mature yet. It's very interesting because he makes a lot of experiments in this film, like the glass ceiling, and we see how hard he wanted, at the time, to really make his mark, to stand above the rest. Although the ending is not very good, the first 20 minutes of The Lodger are impressive, with Hitchcock slowly telling us (visually, of course) about the killer and his particularities, until the arrival of Ivor Novello. A must-see picture to any real Hitchcock fan
