Full Description

Cary Grant and James Stewart were everything Alfred Hitchcock was not. Grant radiated charm and sophistication. Stewart embodied resilience and depth. Hitchcock—a meticulous, private man ruled by fear—found freedom through them. Between 1941 and 1959, Hitchcock made eight unforgettable films with these two stars: four with Stewart —Rope (1948), Rear Window (1954), The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956), and Vertigo (1958)—and four with Grant—Suspicion (1941), Notorious (1946), To Catch a Thief (1955), and North by Northwest (1959). In those eighteen years, Grant shed his comedic persona to become a hero, Stewart transformed from boy-next-door to war-hardened everyman, and Hitchcock reached the pinnacle of his craft—living his most daring, mysterious self through their performances. Exploring how Hitchcock symbolically used their characters reveals his creative process and deepens our understanding of his films' layered meanings._x000D_
These films are more than entertainment; they are veiled confessions of Hitchcock's deepest obsessions, fears, and desires. Through Grant and Stewart, Hitchcock could experiment, love, kill, and conquer—vicariously-inviting viewers to glimpse his inner world._x000D_
In The Secret Hitchcock, Nat Segaloff pulls back the curtain to reveal the profound connection between Hitchcock and his art. Through the actors, Hitchcock could do what he never dared: expose a killer, rescue a child, solve a crime, or fall in love. Behind these creative partnerships lay a web of secrecy that Segaloff unravels with precision, offering a fresh, compelling portrait of the Master of Suspense—and the stars who embodied his imagination and brought his darkest dreams to life.
