| Hitchcock
is regarded as one of the greatest directors in the history of cinema.
His films read on many levels with each detail carefully planned; every set prop placed for a reason; every action and shot thought through by the director before shooting an inch of tape. We all watch the films of the "Master of Suspense" to see where he makes his appearance. When we study his films we learn how to sharpen our skills in the film trace.
