Hitchcock: The story of a man ahead of his time
7 June 2013
Since the days of early cinema hitchcock has been the name that has been reviewed as the director and innovator of modern cinema, A man of the screen for the screen and for the audience. So it makes sense that a man of great power should have a film of equal amount of stance.

This film is a film of great measure, Hitchcock, shows the man behind the silver screen and a man who certainly caused a stir, with the film voted as the scariest film of all time. The film follows the mind of Hitchcock as he struggles with the censorship of the studio, the spiritless of the actors and trying to get them to show emotion within their roles and a possible affair his wife may be having with another man. The film starts with brutality humor and a down and out director who although once a great director seems to be having doubts on his ability for creating movies that the audience wont scrutinize.

The humor within this film is very witty and will appeal to people whose humor would follow of a blunt but to the point humor

The brutality of this film is shown in a few scenes of violence which is in perfect style and very little which is needed not to overpower the overall point of the film, The characters within the film are very believable on the grounds that the actors and actresses that have been cast for these roles are very well chosen and take on the roles of the characters given, Anthony hopkins was the perfect choice for alfred hitchcock and shows the exact amount of buoyancy and darkness to the man himself, with some amazing emotional parts which shows the real acting talent of anthony hopkins

with a real star studied cast this film could not beg for more with the likes of Helen Mirren , Scarlett Johansson , Jessica Biel and many many more big named cast member this film will have to star gazing in no time, The cinematography which is used within the film also represents a great focus on alfred hitchcocks style of cinematography dark daring and brooding

This film is a emotional ride through and though and i would highly recommend people sit through the 98 minutes of this film and 98 minutes is the perfect amount of time for this film because no more and no less needs to be said within those 98 minutes

I highly Recommend this film
