Alfred Hitchcock: Killers, Auteurs, and Survivors
Alfred Hitchcock grew up on murder. He was the OG crime junkie; obsessed with true stories of stranglers, bodysnatchers, necrophiliacs, and serial killers. He was also afraid – not so much with these ghoulish figures, but of authority, the dark, crowds, and of being alone. He channeled his obsessions and his fears into some of the greatest movies of all time. And he abused his power as a controlling auteur by having his way with an actress who he assumed to be powerless. That actress, Tippi Hedren, demonstrated remarkable strength and survived both personally and professionally to tell her story. This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners, including graphic depictions of violence, sexual assault, and stalking. There's more about Alfred Hitchcock coming to your feed on Thursday in the After Party bonus episode.
