Yuh, I'm not quite so sure about this now. It is reasonably factual, slants towards pervy Hitch and unfaithful Alma, brings Ed Gein into Hitch's thoughts to no great effect. Does emphasize input of Alma, which is welcome. It's no My Week with Marilyn, however. John McLaughlin's screenplay is based on Stephen Rebello's 'Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho'.
A capable cast: Anthony Hopkins, Helen Mirren, Scarlett Johansson, Michael Stuhlbarg, Danny Huston (who I always find seems slightly sinister), Toni Collette, James D'Arcy, Jessica Biel, Ralph Macchio (writer Joe Stefano).
Music by Danny Elfman. DP Jeff Cronenweth. Editor Pamela Martin.
