Hitchcock and the making of Marnie

"The name Alfred Hitchcock is synonymous with great film. Now his most controversial film - Marnie - is explored in detail from its conception to its reception and to the influence it has exerted in the years since its release. Marnie's merit is the source of great dispute; while some critics see it as Hitchcock's last masterpiece, others view it as the beginning of his artistic decline.

Using interviews with the production team, archived material, and Hitchcock's personal notes, author Tony Lee Moral delves into this dichotomy, as well as the cultural and political factors governing the film's production."--BOOK JACKET.
