Alfred Hitchcock's films - gold fund of the world film industry

Alfred Hitchcock left after himself the memory of the cult director and screenwriter, his contribution to the development of the film industry can not be overemphasized. He is the founder of a genre of cinema, like a thriller. Alfred Hitchcock's films combine an entertaining and entertaining plot and a dark, profound meaning. Maestro masterfully mastered the camera, drove the actors to despair, but he always dined on schedule.

The ancestor of the genre

None of the audience is no longer surprised by the words "thriller", "suspense", "horror." But few people know the person who invented these cinematographic techniques. The maestro managed to do something incredible. He not only became the founder of a new direction in the cinema, but also helped the filmmakers learn how to use all means to give the audience a subtle psychological puzzle.

Modern films, proudly calling themselves thrillers, are full of a bloody mash. And Alfred Hitchcock's films are distinguished by an elegant style. Everything reminds of him: the appearance of the heroes, the story line, even accidentally got into the frame of a basket with threads and needles. For example, the drawing of black and white "Psycho" has a shade of cream-brule with cream. Every detail is in its place. The director successfully conjures up angles, skillfully combines large and general plans, emphasizes the plot suitable for the theme of color and music. All together looks perfect, a real horror. Therefore it is the "Psycho" rightfully heading the category "Best Hitchcock Films".

Hole from a bagel

Genius often had to portray scenes as absurd, in order to achieve spectacularity. Not surprisingly, even the notorious Salvador Dali prepared the scenery for the picture "Enchanted." At the same time, Hitchcock was able to present the real truth, necessary for this film, to submit everything as it really is. It does not matter what it is - an exciting spy adventure, a serious mental disorder, natural disasters. All around you feel tension (the action of taking McGuffin). This favorite reception of the maestro, unknown to the general public, favorably singled out Alfred Hitchcock's films among such films. He used it in all spy stories, melodramatic suspensions, detective-criminal narratives. In other words, such a move can be called a hole from a donut. Practically from nothing there is a holistic narrative, the art intrigue is fastened - such structure has all the best films of Hitchcock.

The creator liked to add an afterword, leave the viewer in meditation even after the end of the picture. For example, the weapons hanging on the walls do not necessarily shoot, but will make you think.

Top-list of phobias

The great genius had some fears. For some reason he was afraid of small children, high-rises, people in police uniforms, objects with oval outlines (for example, eggs), as well as an unsuccessful premiere of a new cinematic creation. But, strangely enough, they moved it forward, to the creation of great masterpieces. Alfred Hitchcock's new films have served as a kind of antidote for phobias, pills that help move on, to the top of success. The first experience of the screenwriter Hitchcock received in 22 years, and in 3 years he made the first movie. A big career began with a small one - the names of the actors on the cards. He was able to rise, traveling from the beginning of the staircase to the steps of glory, to the olymp of world success.

Gold fund of the film industry

The director is not exactly threatened with oblivion, they will not forget about him. The great Hitchcock remains forever in the classics of world cinema. The filmography of the genius is represented by more than fifty full-length films, documentary films and television projects. The most interesting thing is that he appeared in the frames of all his paintings (in a small role). All the famous filmmakers of the day, such giants as David Lynch, Martin Scorsese, Steven Spielberg, learn the skills of a great master, returning to their creations in the films created by Hitchcock. The best created by him long ago became the standard of skill. So, Emir Kusturica in the film "Arizona Dream" repeated the cult scene of the persecution of heroes by the corn cob, taken from the tape "North through the north-west".

Hollywood stars are often photographed against the backdrop of the scenery of famous maestro films. Among them are Gwyneth Paltrow, Robert Downey Jr., Charlize Theron, Scarlett Johansson and others. Puppet Barbie personified the heroine of the tape "Birds". It was released by the anniversary of the filming, 45 years after the release of the film.

Documentary commentary

A powerful documentary commentary to the "shelf" project "Facts about the German concentration camps", which was created in 1945 by the famous British producer Sidney Bernstein and Alfred Hitchcock, is considered the new motion picture of André Singer "Come Night". This work seems to take the responsibility of acting as a commentator, placing a black and white chronicle in the context of the horror of the great Story. When the chronicles that became the basis for the 2014 film were filmed, the government deliberately invited Hitchcock to work on the project. Only he was able to come up with effective structural devices for filming those already nauseating, monstrous scenes. They are demonstrated by the project "Come Night". Hitchcock made his film purposely understandable, irrefutable and tough. During the installation, the master selected exceptionally long plans and panoramas, so that the authors of the "Facts" could not be reproached for unnecessary editing tricks. It was such an uncompromising attitude that became the main reason for the film to stay on the shelf for a long time. Only last year was presented to the viewer a completed project called "The Night Will Come." Hitchcock warned back in 1945 that not everyone will be able to watch the film until the end.

Without an Oscar

It's a pity that the great genius could not get an Oscar for the best director's work. His ashes, according to the will, scattered over the waters of the Pacific Ocean. The great genius wanted to find peace on the seabed. In his opinion, it's not too shocking and great - to rest under the smooth water of the ocean.
