🎬 My Name Is Alfred Hitchcock is a bold and imaginative new documentary from acclaimed filmmaker and film historian Mark Cousins, who reintroduces us to the iconic director through a surprising and deeply personal lens. Rather than a traditional biographical portrait, Cousins creates a cinematic séance of sorts—channeling Hitchcock himself to narrate his life and work in the first person, offering fresh insight into both his technique and psychology.

Spanning decades of Hitchcock’s legendary career—from early silent films to his Hollywood masterpieces—My Name Is Alfred Hitchcock examines six recurring themes in his work: escape, desire, loneliness, time, fulfillment, and height. Through this framework, Cousins invites audiences to reconsider what they think they know about the so-called “Master of Suspense.” The result is an intellectually rich, visually inventive, and often unexpectedly emotional portrait of a filmmaker whose fingerprints remain all over modern cinema.Featuring clips from over 40 of Hitchcock’s films—including Vertigo, Rear Window, North by Northwest, The Birds, and Psycho—the film is both a celebration of a cinematic giant and a meditation on the evolution of film itself. The voice of Hitchcock (performed by impressionist Alistair McGowan) is witty, ironic, vulnerable, and razor-sharp—bringing a new perspective to the man behind the legend.Produced with the blessing of the Hitchcock estate, My Name Is Alfred Hitchcock is not just for die-hard fans or cinephiles—it’s for anyone interested in how cinema shapes the way we see, feel, and think. At once playful and profound, it’s a masterclass in storytelling and a love letter to the mysteries of movie-making.#AlfredHitchcock #MarkCousins #MyNameIsAlfredHitchcock #InsideTheArthouse #HitchcockDocumentary #StoryOfFilm #ClassicCinema #FilmmakingPodcast #ArthouseCinema #RearWindow #Vertigo #Psycho #FilmAnalysis #GregLaemmle #RaphaelSbarge #cinephile Alfred Hitchcock documentary My Name Is Alfred Hitchcock Mark Cousins Hitchcock filmHitchcock voice documentary Hitchcock film analysis Hitchcock first-person documentaryModern Hitchcock tribute Hitchcock legacy film Documentary about HitchcockMaster of Suspense film Hitchcock movies explained Rear Window documentaryVertigo analysis Psycho film history Classic cinema documentary Hollywood Golden AgeAuteur theory film British film history Film essay documentary Cinema studies documentaryEscape and cinema Desire in film Time and memory in movies Film theory and HitchcockCinematic storytelling Visual language of suspense Psychological thriller roots Cinematic innovation Hitchcock Filmmaking masterclass For film students For Hitchcock fans For cinephiles For film lovers For documentary fans Arthouse cinema Classic film buffs Movie podcast audience@laemmle @insideTheArthouse  @OfficialRaphaelSbarge  Hosted by Greg Laemmle, President of Laemmle Theatres, and Raphael Sbarge, Emmy Award-winning director and actor, Inside the Arthouse gives listeners a front-row seat to conversations with the creative forces behind today’s most compelling arthouse films.👉 Discover more at InsidetheArthouse.com#arthouse #arthouseFilm @laemmle #BehindTheScenes #FilmDiscussion #MovieReview #NewReleases #NewFilmReleases #FilmLovers #Cinema #MoviePodcast #GregLaemmle #RaphaelSbarge #LaemmleTheatres #FilmDistribution #MovieIndustry #FilmBusiness Video Podcast Independent Film / Indie Film Arthouse Film / Arthouse Movie Film Lovers / Cinema New Movie Releases / New Film Releases Repertory Cinema / Classic Films / Classic Movies Filmmaker Interviews / Filmmakers (Directors, Writers, Producers) Film Distributors / Film Distribution Movie Industry / Film Business / Movie Business Behind-the-Scenes Insights Film Discussion / Movie Reviews / Film Analysis Greg Laemmle / Raphael Sbarge Laemmle Theatres
