About the series: Among a host of masterpieces and just plain ripping-good stories, film director Alfred Hitchcock (1899 - 1980) remains primarily known as the Master of Suspense in movies that cleverly manipulate audiences through horror (Psycho, 1960; The Birds, 1963), spy “dramedies” (The Lady Vanishes, 1938; Notorious, 1946), and picaresque innocent-man-on-the-run thrillers (The 39 Steps, 1935; North by Northwest, 1959). Unbeknownst to most fans, Hitchcock explored other genres, too, including two Period Costume Dramas that took place in 1820 Cornwall and 1840s Australia, and two comedies, one Screwball and one dark tongue-in-cheek.
