Me and Hitch, Paperback / softback Book

Me and Hitch Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

'Tell me the story so far' were the words Evan Hunter heard each morning as he sat down to work with Alfred Hitchcock on the screenplay of The Birds.

The starting point was Daphne du Maurier's short story, but all that Hitchcock retained from the original was the title and the idea of birds attacking humans - the rest emerged in the working sessions in which Hitchcock and Hunter grappled with the ideas and notions that eventually coalesced into the final film.

Me and Hitch provides a rare glimpse of Hitchcock's very particular working methods, as well as insight into his film-making process.
