He also has a somewhat checkered reputation among those who&#8217;ve worked with him. Or so I&#8217;ve read. If I&#8217;m being honest, I know very little about the man responsible for such acclaimed movies as <em><strong>North by Northwest<\/strong><\/em>, <strong><em>The Birds<\/em><\/strong>, and <strong><em>Rear Window<\/em><\/strong>. What little I do know revolves around that he&#8217;s been accused of being handsy with his female cast members as well as his being a bit unconventional in hassling reactions out of them for the camera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2012&#8217;s <strong><em>Hitchcock<\/em><\/strong>, starring Anthony Hopkins as the filmmaker and directed by Sacha Gervasi (<a href=\"https:\/\/movieassault.com\/index.php\/2009\/06\/14\/anvil-the-story-of-anvil-2008\/\"><strong><em>Anvil! The Story of Anvil<\/em><\/strong><\/a>), looked like an entertaining way to learn a bit more about the man and his methods. With a great cast, including Helen Mirren, Scarlett Johansson, Toni Collette, and Danny Huston, I figured it couldn&#8217;t miss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, the film doesn&#8217;t delve very deeply into the man. It&#8217;s based on the book, <i>Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho,&nbsp;<\/i>written by Stephen Rebello. So, the focus is limited to the creation and filming of Hitchcock&#8217;s most successful film. OK, that&#8217;s fine. But as the film opens, Hopkins, in heavy facial makeup and a fat suit, greets the audience with Hitch&#8217;s trademark accentuated, &#8220;Good evening.&#8221; It takes a bit of time to get used to Hopkins in this get-up. He looks somewhat like Hitchcock but still resembles himself. It&#8217;s clear that the film intends to deliver a somewhat stylized version of the director.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from the heavy makeup and the fact that almost every character reminds the audience of the director&#8217;s past achievements by name, much of the story could be about any successful director at some point in their career. How many directors have had trouble finding a new project that excited them on a creative level? How many directors had a strong creative partner on whom they could lean when they felt insecure? How many directors have had trouble finishing a film on-budget and on-time? While there are Hitchcock-specific elements to the story, aside from the fact that Hitch financed <strong><em>Psycho<\/em><\/strong> out of his own pocket, they are few, far between, and mostly trivial at best. For a film entitled <strong><em>Hitchcock<\/em><\/strong>, we learn much more about the production of <strong><em>Psycho<\/em><\/strong> than we do about the director. Thankfully, that&#8217;s almost interesting enough to make the film worth recommending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some stellar performances elevate the film to that status. Helen Mirren shines as Hitchcock&#8217;s wife, Alma Reville, who is portrayed as his more refined better half. Toni Collette disappears into her role as Peggy, Hitch&#8217;s personal assistant. I didn&#8217;t even recognize her at first. Scarlett Johansson and Jessica Biel play two of Hitch&#8217;s leading ladies. Johansson is Janet Leigh, the star of <strong><em>Psycho<\/em><\/strong> and the current object of Hitch&#8217;s obsession. Biel is Vera Miles, who was once Hitch&#8217;s favored leading lady and is now quite thankful to only have one picture left in her contract with him. James D&#8217;Arcy delivers a spot-on Anthony Perkins but, sadly, doesn&#8217;t get a lot of screen-time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Had <strong><em>Hitchcock&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong>spent less time on the &#8220;Is Alma cheating or isn&#8217;t she&#8221; subplot and the weird interludes where Hitchcock interacts with Ed Gein (Michael Wincott,) the serial killer who inspired Robert Bloch to write the novel, <em>Psycho,&nbsp;<\/em>I think I would have enjoyed it much more. But, as it is, it&#8217;s a marginally entertaining look behind-the-scenes during the making of one of Hitchcock&#8217;s greatest films. But I wouldn&#8217;t go into it expecting a reliable source of accurate information about the &#8220;Master of Suspense.&#8221; Or, rather, much information at all.<\/p>\n\n\n<span class=\"fsrs\"><span class=\"fsrs-stars\"><i class=\"fsrs-fas fa-fw fa-star \"><\/i><i class=\"fsrs-fas fa-fw fa-star \"><\/i><i class=\"fsrs-fas fa-fw fa-star \"><\/i><i class=\"fsrs-far fa-fw fa-star \"><\/i><i class=\"fsrs-far fa-fw fa-star \"><\/i><\/span><span class=\"hide fsrs-text fsrs-text__hidden\" aria-hidden=\"false\">3.0 out of 5.0 stars<\/span><span class=\"lining fsrs-text fsrs-text__visible\" aria-hidden=\"true\">3.0<\/span><\/span>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For a film entitled Hitchcock, we learn much more about the production of Psycho than we do about the director.
