Review title: The ultimate (or rather penultimate) book on film.
Product review: The parenthetical statement is in reference to Cameron Crowe's "Conversations With Wilder", which complements this revered tome aptly (as you can read in my review of that book). This book simply must be read by anyone remotely interested in Hitchcock or film in general. No filmmaker has ever discussed his total body of work in such detail, or with such wit and insight. Of course, no other director has a more impressive filmography: over 50 feature films in about 50 years, with many of them merely great, and several landmark films that stand above all others. Hitch's memory of the smallest details from decades before is astounding -- a true testament to his genius.
