Donald Spoto
4.9/5 (24193 ratings)

Donald Spoto traces the roots of Hitchcock's obsessions - with murder, food, and idealized love - to the childhood that made them all but inevitable. He explores Hitchcock's marriage to a gifted co-worker, his crude and often practical jokes, and his many fantasy romances, culminating in a dangerous obsession with a beautiful young blond actress.Most of all, Spoto recreates with compelling immediacy the amazing technical expertise and awesome perfectionism that made Hitchcock one of the world's most famous and revered filmmakers.Based on impeccable research, on interviews with Hitchcock's writers, actors and longtime associates, and on recently discovered information from studio archives, "The Dark Side of Genius" is truly the definitive biography of Alfred Hitchcock.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
