Hitchcock in London, Part 4: Alfred Hitchcock’s "Sabotage"

Episode Topic: Alfred Hitchcock’s "Sabotage"In the last week of our Hitchcock in London book club, we examine "Sabotage," (1936) the film he adapted from Joseph Conrad’s novel "The Secret Agent" (1907). The film makes some noticeable changes from the novel, in its setting, representation of the police, and in the role of Winnie. It also includes two famous sequences that illustrate Hitchcock’s philosophy about the importance of editing and the differences between surprise and suspense.Featured Speakers:Susan Ohmer, The William T. and Helen Kuhn Carey Associate Professor of Modern Communication, University of Notre DameKieron Webb, Head of Conservation, British Film InstituteRev.
