This is the first volume devoted solely to the twenty-three films directed by Alfred Hitchcock in his native England before he moved to the United States. In this traditional auteurist examination of Hitchcock's early work, author Maurice Yacowar considers Hitchcock's British films in chronological order, reads the composition of individual shots and scenes in each, and pays special attention to the films' verbal effects.
