Hitchcock's Suspense Stories: the Good Man Wronged (hardcover Collector's Edition)
by Hitchcock
About This Novel
The stories collected in this set of books are all adapted from Hitchcock's films and TV series. Hitchcock was recognized as the greatest film director of all time during his lifetime, but he never won the Academy Award for Best Director, although he was nominated six times. He won a special Oscar in 1968 and the Griffith Award from the Directors Guild of America in the same year. In 1979, he won the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Film Institute. What Hitchcock contributed to the art of film is definitely not just pure film techniques. Just like the characters in his movies often have multiple personalities, Hitchcock's movie personalities also have multiple personalities. He is a master of suspense, a master of psychology, and a master of philosophy in movies. Few people have such a profound insight into the absurdity of life and the fragility of human nature. Underneath the carefully designed techniques, we see a soul that has been suppressed by a strict Catholic upbringing. Hitchcock's movies are a contradictory unity of life and death, crime and punishment, reason and madness, innocence and temptation, repression and resistance. They are poems that directly address the dark hearts of people. He has been called the "Freud of film."

It's so dark, and the professionalism is so low that it's no wonder you can't guess the ending. What's up with being dark and decent? It's actually quite good.

It's okay, but it would really feel a bit silly to score twice. It's not wrong to be more careful about money
