    Is there anyone who did more to develop the language of film than Hitchcock?

      Wright with comedic language? The punchline of his jokes are often a whip-pan or a cut rather than a line.

      The cinematic genius that is Tommy Wiseau, the man is a genius in every sense of the word.

      To make the seem more similar. For the same reason, they also have same names. This brings them closer to each other and makes it even more traumatizing later when little Charlie has to separate from him and dislike him.

    Great video. Little addendum on repetition in Psycho: in a span of 25 mins, Lila + Norman + Arbogast all enter the house, pause, look in 3 directions, and then make a decision about where to go.

    Its a tapestry really. Where on one hand you have Hitchcock, on the other, you have John Ford, F.W. Murnau, or Jean Renoir. Each making their own contribution to cinema. Yes, Hitch did a lot to develop it, but there are definitely others who help create, what we now know as cinematic language.

    He was so great! When asked by Dick Cavett who Hitchcock thought was the greatest director of all time, Hitchcock said..."Walt Disney!" Hitchcock said he has no equal. The audience erupted with applause for both men and especially Disney. God bless them both.

    • @landofthesilverpath5823
      @landofthesilverpath5823 9 місяців тому +2

      So true! Really shows how much he knew about film and it goes to show his unpretentiousness about his own skill to be able to admit that Disney was a great innovator. Few other filmakers would admit that a maker of "children's cartoons," was indeed a master of the craft.
