Alfred Hitchcock: Film Analysis

I've never watched an Alfred Hitchcock movie. I've heard of him throughout my life. I know he is the go-to example for classic "horror" movies, but I've just never had the desire to watch his movies. His style of suspense would've been perfect for the days following World War I, but were they still relevant today? I went to Vintage Hitchcock a little bit cautious. I wasn't sure what to expect. The idea of watching a live radio play fascinated me, but I wasn't sure about the element of horror involved. Turns out, I was to be pleasantly surprised and find a new genre of movies to watch.
The play was set up in a blackbox room. This means that they can design the set in specific ways that a typical theater can't be arranged in. This set was in the corner with two rows of seats facing it. The set was completely black and there was nothing
There were even prop girls behind a counter to make the appropriate sound effects. The actors startled me at first. They didn't appears as I expected. They were dressed in black and grays, their visible bodies covered in gray makeup, and had a variety of accents. Not too sure of my expectations, I sat back and watched the show.
The only act I'm going to fully comment on is "The Lodger," the first act. To do this, I have to tell you a personal story. When I was eight, my mother and I found a movie at Dollar Tree with Aunt Bee in it. We are huge Andy Griffin fans, so we were very excited to take this movie home and watch it. Turns out, watching a movie named "Man in the Attic" might not be the best idea for an eight year old. It's was about a serial killer in London who was killing girls on the streets at night. This man showed up at Aunt Bee's (not her real name or her character's name-but that's who she was to us)
