Gary Olsen, film historian, will give a three-part presentation on Alfred Hitchcock.

Part One

English-born Alfred Hitchcock, the 'Master of Suspense,' directed over 50 films during his six decades in cinema. Hitchcock's influence has been cited as pivotal, shaping modern cinema with his stunning visuals and tightly edited sequences. In our introductory presentation, we'll look at Hitchcock's English upbringing and his first movies, which brought him to the attention of Hollywood studios. Among the films we'll examine are Britain's first talkie, 1929's Blackmail, his classic 1935's The 39 Steps, and 1936's Sabotage, among many others.
