【世界文化博览】惊悚大师：希区柯克 36

英语自学网

It's always been assumed that Hitch was some kind of misogynist, but I have the impression from a number of things that he told me later on, that if you're thinking of his films, that he wasn't identifying so much with the glamour male figures, the Cary Grants, the James Stewarts, and so on. But if he was identifying with anybody, it was with the suffering heroine. In fact, he always, as far as I can make out, enjoyed the company of women, perhaps more than he enjoyed the company of men. He certainly always had female assistants, female secretaries. Alma, his wife of course, was his most important assistant and collaborator throughout his career.
By now the Hitchcocks were firmly established in their adopted home. In Hollywood, they lived in a modest bungalow in Bel Air. But their favorite place was San Francisco. The city and the surrounding area would provide an unforgettable setting for one of Hitchcock's most haunting films - Vertigo.
