Working from a meditative devotion to and an illuminating familiarity with the director's work, Pomerance shines light upon six films, some of them (\u003ci\u003eNotorious\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Lady Vanishes\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Trouble with Harry\u003c\/i\u003e) frequently, even obsessively treated, and others (\u003ci\u003eFrenzy\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Wrong Man\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eTopaz\u003c\/i\u003e) less often discussed. In its strange relation to speech, memory, urbanity, guilt, mortality, and espionage, silence becomes, in these films, a dramatic protagonist in its own right. Written by a master interpreter of Hitchcock, this book offers new ways of seeing, experiencing, and thinking about the films of one of cinema's greatest artists, as well as new ways of reflecting on our experience of cinema itself.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"State University of New York Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54410231742808,"sku":"9781438491882","price":36.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781438491882.jpg?v=1777895148","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/silence-from-hitchcock","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
