And yet the story of how \u003ci\u003eThe Lodger\u003c\/i\u003e came to be made is shrouded in myth, often repeated and much embellished, even by Hitchcock himself. \u003ci\u003eThe First True Hitchcock\u003c\/i\u003e focuses on the twelve-month period that encompassed \u003ci\u003eThe Lodger'\u003c\/i\u003es production in 1926 and release in 1927, presenting a new picture of this pivotal year in Hitchcock's life and in the wider film world. Using fresh archival discoveries, Henry K. Miller situates Hitchcock's formation as a director against the backdrop of a continent shattered by war and confronted with the looming presence of a new superpower, the United States, and its most visible export--film. The previously untold story of \u003ci\u003eThe Lodger'\u003c\/i\u003es making in the London fog--and attempted remaking in the Los Angeles sun--is the story of how Hitchcock became Hitchcock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-4994096\"\u003eHenry K.
