I know he studied and worked in Germany in the early decades of the 1900s, and I can see how he picked up lighting techniques in particular from that. What I really love about him is how different what he was doing in his early career was from a) his British contemporaries and b) his later work.

Interesting rumor about his wife. I hadn’t heard that before. I an going to have to read the interview as well to see if they talk about that. I also am interested in knowing if Hithcock had any particular sources which influenced his work. It was so original at the time that I wonder what his thinking was.

I can’t wait to read this; what I really want to see is if they address the rumor that his wife was pulling many of the strings behind the scenes. It would cast some interesting new light on a number of his films.
