ALFRED HITCHCOCK: PIECE BY PIECE
Book ID/图书代码： 07672008B27834
English Summary/英文概要： In a career that spanned sixty years, Alfred Hitchcock made more than fifty feature-length films and hosted his own television series, transforming the thriller genre in the twentieth century. Author Laurent Bouzereau puts this incredible canon into perspective, examining the master’s life thematically: his archetypal anti-heroes; his complicated female characters; his charming villains; and something Bouzereau calls "the Hitchcock touch" -- those elements of film that are, quite simply, Hitchcockian.
With a foreword by Hitchcock’s daughter, Patricia Hitchcock O’Connell, Hitchcock, Piece by Piece is packed with photographs from the family’s archive, many of which have never been published before, plus removable facsimile memorabilia such as letters, memos, and snapshots, which frame the story of the director’s life and work.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 在长达60年的职业生涯中，阿尔弗雷德·希区柯克拍摄了50多部长篇电影，并主演了自己的电视连续剧，改变了20世纪的惊悚类型。作家劳伦特·布泽罗对这部令人难以置信的经典进行了透视，从主题上审视了这位大师的生活：他的原型反英雄；他复杂的女性性格；迷人的恶棍；布泽罗称之为“希区柯克式”的东西。这些电影元素，很简单，就是希区柯克风格。
希区柯克的女儿帕特希雅·希区柯克·奥克奈尔在《希区柯克：传奇今生》为希区柯克写了前言，内容里面装满了家族档案中的照片，其中许多以前从未出版过的照片，还有信件、备忘录和快照等纪念品，这些纪念品构成了导演生活和工作的故事。(ZY)
Awards/获奖情况：“在世的人很少像布泽罗那样了解希区柯克。”——伦纳德·马尔廷
“在出版了数百本关于阿尔弗雷德·希区柯克的书之后，人们似乎没有发现任何关于这位著名导演的东西，但这一本新书在希区柯克家族档案中搜寻罕见的照片，其中许多照片迄今尚未出版。更令人着迷的是装在袋子里的纪念品的复制品；这些剪贴簿类型的物品在这个数字时代提供了触觉和动手阅读的机会，包括备忘录和手写笔记、家庭快照、故事板以及希区柯克的出生证和结婚证。这本书的内容没有那么独特——也许对这位最痴迷的电影制作人的作品几乎没有什么可说的了——但电影历史学家布泽罗避免了对希区柯克漫长职业生涯的标准时间顺序方法，他在专门讨论希区柯克的“错男人”主角和反英雄、他复杂的女性角色、他那些惊奇的反派角色，以及他独特的风格。如果这些部分在很大程度上是电影情节和现有评论的翻版，那么对于大多数普通影迷来说，这将是全新的，而铁杆影迷将喜欢在希区柯克庞大的书架上展示的这一小而有趣的稀有作品。”——戈顿·弗莱格
"Few people alive know as much about Hitchcock as Bouzereau."
--Leonard Maltin
After the hundreds of books that have been published about Alfred Hitchcock, it would seem that nothing remained to be unearthed regarding the celebrated director; but a new coffee-table book raids the Hitchcock family archives for rare photos, many heretofore unpublished. Even more fascinating are facsimile reproductions of memorabilia, housed in pouches; these scrapbook-type items, offering tactile, hands-on perusal in this digital age, include memos and handwritten notes, family snapshots, storyboards, and Hitchcock’s birth and marriage certificates. The book’s text is rather less distinctive—perhaps there’s little left to be said about the work of this most obsessed-over of filmmakers—but film historian Bouzereau avoids the standard chronological approach to Hitchcock’s lengthy career by presenting his observations thematically in chapters devoted to Hitchcock’s “wrong man” protagonists and antiheroes, his complicated women, his strangely compelling villains, and his distinctive stylistic touches. If these portions are largely rehashes—of both the films’ plots and existing commentaries—they’ll be new to most casual moviegoers, while hard-core cinephiles will relish the rarities on display in this minor but diverting addition to the voluminous shelves of Hitchcockiana. --Gordon Flagg
