Abstract

The article focuses on challenging Professor Smyth's characterization of Alfred Hitchcock's work, primarily disputing the claim that Hitchcock took credit for his screenwriters' work, highlighting the New Yorker article's misrepresentation and emphasizing the crucial role of a collaborative team in film production, while also addressing Smyth's assertions about the portrayal of women and geopolitical awareness in Hitchcock's films.
