Made during a time of crisis during Hitchcock’s life, Marnie (1964) is one of the director’s saddest, most profound and personal works. Drawing on never-before-published quotes from Tony’s personal interviews with the writers behind the film, this presentation will consider how their childhood upbringing helped shape the final project.
Tony's new book "Hitchcock: The Storyboards" (Penguin Random House, September 2023) explores the visual design of The 39 Steps through to Torn Curtain. An updated version of "The Young Alfred Hitchcock's Moviemaking Master Class" (2022) focuses on Hitchcock's influence on a new generation of content creators. He is also author of "The Making of Hitchcock's The Birds" and "Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Marnie."
