Hitchcock's Films Revisited
This is really two books in one. It contains the entire text of Robin Wood's groundbreakingHitchcock's Filmsand supplements it with articles and commentaries on Hitchcock that Wood wrote from the time of that book's publication until today.  Tracing the trajectory of Hitchcock's career,Hitchcock's Films Revisitedalso allows us to follow the intellectual and emotional development of one of the cinema's major critics.  Wood's close readings are always revelatory and exciting, and this volume contains probably the best single essay ever written on a Hitchcock movie, Wood's analysis ofVertigo.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
