Known as the "Master Of Suspense" Hitchcock's style of film making goes down in history as one of the most imitated forms to this day.
Filmmakers are heavily influenced by Alfred Hitchcock's work and their films reflect their respect of him and the genre.
Of course my fave Alfred Hitchcock works include his television shows; Alfred Hitchcock Presents, The Alfred Hitchcock Hour and his films that included:
Psycho
Rear Window
To Catch A Thief
Notorious
Marnie
The list goes on and on.
Check out Alfred Hitchcock's classic psychological suspense thriller, Rope:
Plot:
James Stewart, Farley Granger and John Dall star in this macabre spellbinder, which was inspired by a real-life case of murder. Two thrill-seeking friends (Granger and Dall) strangle a classmate and then hold a party for their victim's family and friends, serving refreshments on a buffet table fashioned from a trunk containing the lifeless body. When dinner conversation revolves around talk of the 'perfect murder', their former teacher (Stewart) becomes increasingly suspicious that his students have turned his intellectual theories into brutal reality.
Starring: James Stewart, John Dall, Farley Granger, Sir Cedric Hardwicke, Constance Collier, Joan Chandler, Douglas Dick, Edith Evanson, Dick Hogan
