Hitchcock by Truffaut
François Truffaut will always have a special place in my heart for The 400 Blows & Hitchcock/Truffaut.
Hitchcock by Truffaut is a profound exploration of Alfred Hitchcock's life through in-depth interviews conducted over several years. Truffaut's impeccable skill as an interviewer is seen when he effortlessly navigates between technical discussions and personal anecdotes while getting Hitchcock to analyze his own artistry. It reminded me of the indelible mark Hitchcock left on cinema, and the book cements both his and Truffaut's status as luminaries in the realm of film history.
