From Alfred Hitchcock, the Master of Suspense, nine of his earliest fiIms presented together for the first time, running from the silent film era to the invention of talkies.
Hitchcock’s silent fiIms such as The Ring(1928), The Farmer’s Wife(1929) and Champagne(1928) were greeted with great enthusiasm by critics, and, at a time of expansion and increasing optimism for the British film industry, they were heralded as evidence that British films had reached an internationaI standard of artistry. Hitchcock’s final siIent film The Manxman(1930) was also a considerabIe commercial success.
ln 1929, Hitchcock directed BlackmaiI, hailed as a film which used sound and dialogue with more flair and imagination than any HolIywood or European film of the time. ln particuIar, Hitchcock’s inventive and expressionist use of sound demonstrated that the new technoIogy opened a new reaIm of possibiIities.
In the wake of Blackmail, there were searches for new chaIIenges. These incIuded an adaptation of a high profile West End pIay, The Skin Game(1931), two more thriIlers Murder! (1930), Number Seventeen(1932), and an intriguingIy odd maritaI drama, the appropriately titled Rich and Strange(1932). |
