Notes & References
- ↑ Hitchcock's early reputation was made by the series of six thrillers he completed for Gaumont-British and Gainsborough in the middle and late thirties. His early American period, including the work done for David Selznick, can be seen as a consolidation of his ability to work within the thriller genre. With the appearance of the thematic study of this body of work by Chabrol/Rohmer in 1957, however, attention shifted from the narrative form of the Hitchcockian film to its purportedly religious content. For further discussion of the early commercial and critical views of Hitchcock's accomplishment see Maurice Yacowar, Hitchcock's British Films (Hamden, Conn.: Archon Books, 1977).
