Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

Neutrons are electrocharge-free particles that, together with protons, form atomic nuclei (with the exception of the simplest isotope of hydrogen, protium, which consists of only one proton).


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

The neutron belongs to the baryons and is formed by three elementary particles, two down-quarks, as well as one up-quark.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

The neutron and proton are also collectively referred to as nucleon.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

The neutron should not be confused with a neutrino.

15 minutes).


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

A similar decay reaction can also occur in some radioactive atoms (especially isotopes containing neutrons well over the number of protons).


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

In stable nuclei, this decay does not occur, neither does in neutron stars where neutrons are as dense as in atomic nuclei so that neutronium is formed from them.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

Interactions Neutron interacts through all four basic interactions.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

An electrically uncharged neutron has a magnetic moment and its building compartments, quarks, are electrically charged.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

Electromagnetic interaction is significant mainly in scattering experiments and when the neutron is in a magnetic field.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

Gravitation acts on a neutron, like all particles of mass, but at the particle level its intensity is usually vanishingly small.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

Weak interaction causes beta decay of the neutron.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

Strong interactions are usually the greatest force acting on the neutron.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

It binds quarks together into a neutron, and on the other hand also neutrons to the nucleus.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

Neutron applications Neutrons play a significant part in the functioning of both peaceful nuclear power and nuclear weapons.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

In both, a chain reaction is achieved by neutrons, such that neutrons generated in fission reactions cause new reactions when they hit the fuel nuclei.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

The speed of the reaction can therefore be regulated by adjusting the intensity of neutron flux by means of a neutron-absorbing substance placed in the reactor (for example, control rods).


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

Neutrons can also be used to study the structure of matter in the same way as X-rays, since as uncharged particles they penetrate quite deeply into matter.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

The feature has also been utilized in medicine in treatments such as BNCT.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

However, free neutrons are only generated in nuclear reactions, so the availability of neutron sources limits the use of neutrons for these purposes.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

History: Discovery of the Neutron In 1930, researchers Walther Bothe and H. Becker found that when energetic alpha particles hit certain elements, especially beryllium, polonium and lithium, highly pervasive radiation was created that was initially thought to be gamma radiation.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

Two years later Irène Joliot-Curie and Frédéric Joliot discovered that this radiation, upon hitting hydrogen-containing compounds, produced high-energy protons.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

If it had been gamma radiation, its energy would have had to be significantly higher than had ever been observed before and greater than the energy from the reactions that generate the radiation.


Question: What does neutrino mean?

Neutron

Later that year, James Chadwick showed that the conservation problem of energy would be solved in the case of a particle of equal mass equal to a proton, neutral in its electric charge, which was later given the name “neutron”.

[14] Film Career Early Years The American Famous Players-Lasky film production company established a subsidiary Famous Players-Lasky British and a film studio in Islington in 1919.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

When Hitchcock heard that the first film would be a filmatisation of Marie Corelli's novel The Sorrows of Saada, he bought the novel and designed the intermediate credits for it.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

However, they failed to impress Famous Players-Lasky, as the company had decided to film another novel, The Great Day.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock returned the next day with new drawings, initially getting a few small jobs — first on The Great Day (1921) — before getting a full-time job as a designer of intermediate texts towards the end of 1920 and resigning from Henley.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[15] [16] at the Islington studios Hitchcock also first tried directing: Mrs.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Peabody (meaning Number 13) in 1922.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

However, Famous Players-Lasky British was mired in liquidation, and filming of the film was suspended.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Since then, all the filmed footage has disappeared.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The next directing opportunity came as early as the following year when Hugh Croise, the director of Always Tell Your Wife, which was filmed at Islington studios, fell ill and Hitchcock was allowed to direct the film to finish.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock performed well for the position, securing an assistant director position at the Balcon-Saville-Freedman film production company, which had leased the Islington studios after Famous Players-Lasky British went bankrupt in 1923.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The staff of the new company also included Alma Reville, who a couple of years later became Hitchcock's wife.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[17] Balcon-Saville-Freedman only had time to produce two films: Woman Against Woman (1923) and White Shadow (1923), each of which featured Hitchcock as assistant director, screenwriter and set designer.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The first was very successful, but the second failed so badly that the production company owners quit the company.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

However, producer Michael Balcon immediately formed a new production company, Gainsborough Pictures, to which Hitchcock also relocated.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Balcon was constantly looking for collaborators and entered into a 1924 contract to film with Die Prinzessin und der Geiger UFA.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The UFA handled the financing, and Gainsborough Pictures was in turn responsible for production and distribution outside Germany.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The film was shot at UFA's Babelsberg studios, where Hitchcock left with the rest of the film crew in 1924.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The filming trip had a big impact on Hitchcock.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

He had only worked in England for a small British studio and was now in the largest and most significant film studio of that time.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

In an adjacent studio, F. W. Murnau portrayed The Last Man, who had great influence on Hitchcock.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

From Murnau, Hitchcock learned many things related to staging, trick-shooting technique, and film narration.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The influence of Murnau — and also of Fritz Lang, G. W. Pabst, as well as German Expressionism — can be seen above all in Hitchcock's silent films (for example, The Tenant and Purity's Ransom).


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[18] [19] However, the filming of Die Prinzessin und der Geiger did not go well.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Married director Graham Cutts had an affair with an Estonian dancer, and towards the end of filming, they eloped.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock and Alma Reville had to direct to finish the film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Post-production on the film was done in England (on the way back, Hitchcock had proposed to Alma Reville and received an affirmative response).


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

During the filming of his next film, The Prude's Fall, Hitchcock had noticed that director Cutts' attitude towards him had become malevolent.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Cutts indicated that he didn't want Hitchcock in his next film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[20] Silent Directions Gainsborough was at this point expanding, and producer Michael Balcon suggested to Hitchcock to direct his own film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Balcon had observed Hitchcock working for years and was convinced Hitchcock would be able to direct the film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Cutts, who was also a partner in the company, opposed it.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Balcon's rationale was that as production expanded, Cutts would in no way have time to direct all of Gainsborough's films, and furthermore, it was cheaper to use an employee already on the payroll than to hire someone outside.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Balcon had his way and Hitchcock got his first film to direct.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[21] Hitchcock's first directing work was the British-German co-production The Pleasure Garden 1925.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Outdoor filming took place in Italy and studio filming in Germany.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Its reception was positive, but it was not a review or audience success.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

To a proper circulation, it only got to when Hitchcock's The Tenant (premiered in September 1926) had become a success.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[22] The Mountain Eagle (1926), the next completed melodrama, is the only one of the films directed by Hitchcock to have been lost (subject to the unfinished film Number 13).


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[19] The Tenant, which premiered in 1927, was Hitchcock's first suspense film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

It was also Hitchcock's first audience and review success.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

It was even considered the best British film of all time, and thanks to his technical innovations, Hitchcock gained the reputation of being a “wonderboy”.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

In Hitchcock's own opinion, The Tenant was the first “Hitchcock film”.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[23] In it, Hitchcock also first made use of the theme of a man facing impeachment, which he modified in numerous of his later films.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[2] The Tenant also features Hitchcock's first cameo role.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[24] After filming as a tenant, Alfred Hitchcock and Alma Reville were wed on 2 December 1926.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[25] Their only child Patricia Hitchcock was born on July 7, 1928.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[26] However, the tenant's success was followed by a downhill run.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Downhill (1927), Lightshoe (1928) and Kehä (1927) were still fairly favourably received, but Farmar's Married Shop (1928), Champagne and Judge of the Isle of Man (1929) were somewhat poor.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

After being light-shoed (filmed in 1927 but did not premiere until 1928), Hitchcock had passed from Gainsborough to British International Pictures (BIP), which had promised bigger budgets and greater artistic freedom.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[27] Expectations raised by the tenant about Hitchcock's abilities were already beginning to subside until Purity's Ransom premiered in 1929.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[28] For the sound film Purity Ransom filming began as a silent film, but at the last minute it was decided to make it into a sound film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The film was an instant audience and review success, with even the most penny critics sympathetic to it.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[28] With the advent of sound cinema, musical and revue films were made in abundance because it was perceived as an excellent way to demonstrate the possibilities of sound cinema.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

So Hitchcock had to take part in the episode film Elstree Calling (1930), which Hitchcock biographer John Russell Taylor acknowledges with the words “a quirky medium show.”


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Juno and the Peacock (1930) can be considered Hitchcock's first true sound film, as the film was produced from the outset as a sound film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The subject of the Irish was entirely alien to the PeriEnglish Hitchcock, but critics felt he dealt with the Irish masterfully.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Suspected of Murder (1930) again cemented Hitchcock's reputation as a director of suspense films, although it was more of a typical “who did it” story than a suspense-based Hitchcock film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The Subsequent Drug of Riches (1931), however, failed completely.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock's last films for British International Pictures were the quickly-made commissioned work House Number 17 (1932) and Lord Camber's Ladies (1932), which was Hitchcock's only film made as a mere producer.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[29] After BIP, Hitchcock transferred to Gaumont British, which along with BIP was Britain's leading film production company.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

However, Hitchcock's career at Gaumont did not start well, as he was credited with directing the musical film “Waltzes from Vienna” (1933), which he himself regarded as the bottom quotation of his career.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[30] The genesis of the Master of Suspense (1934—1939) Hitchcock's career before 1934 had been very uneven.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Tenant and Purity's Ransom had been great audience and review successes, but had been counterbalanced by plenty of failed films.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

During the filming of “Waltzes of Vienna”, Gaumont British's director Michael Balcon — whose Gainsborough Pictures was now part of Gaumont — offered Hitchcock the chance to direct the film he wanted as soon as Hitchcock would only find suitable material.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock already had one known, and he bought the film rights to Sapper's Bulldog Drummond from BIP and directed the 1934 film The Man Who Knew Too Much.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

For the period that began and lasted until 1939, Hitchcock biographer John Russell Taylor appoints Hitchcock as the period of greatness of the English-period.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[31] Robert A. Harris and Michael S. Lasky, meanwhile, speak of “the genesis of a master of suspense.”


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[32] Producers Michael Balcon and Ivor Montagu gave Hitchcock free rein in the film The Man Who Knew Too Much About the Act, and it was both a review and audience success.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[33] Although it broke all then-current British audience records, it was loss-making because it was presented as the number two film at a fixed price.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

For Hitchcock The Man Who Knew Too Much meant a breakthrough, which allowed him to get a freer hand and a bigger budget to make the next film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[34] The 39 Steps (1935) was a great success not only in Britain but also abroad and especially in the United States.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

That allowed Hitchcock to get the first offers from Hollywood, though most of them were eclipsed by British Gaumont because it did not want to lose its most lucrative director.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The fast-paced and surprising transitions of 39 steps are reminiscent of Hitchcock's Dangerous Romance.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Taylor has stated that if any critic thinks 39steps is Hitchcock's best British film, then the same critic thinks Dangerous Romance is, in turn, Hitchcock's best US film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[35] The 39step espionage theme also continued in the following films Secret Agent (1936) and Sabotage (1936).


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The reception they received was not as good as the 39step, and especially the brutality of the Sabotage bomber scene drew plenty of criticism from contemporaries.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[36] The Young and the Innocent (1937) was as modestly successful as the two films that preceded it, and especially in retrospect film research has regarded it as a finger exercise for the film Woman Disappears (1938).


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[37] Woman disappearing was an unprecedented success.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

It soon became Britain's most successful film, and success in the US was in the same category.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[38] Contemporary critics were almost in a state of charm, and the film was even compared to the work of Paul Cézanne and Igor Stravinsky.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[39] In later reviews, the film has been regarded as Hitchcock's best British film and one of his best films at all.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[40] Moving to the United States With the film Woman Disappears, Hitchcock's contract with Gaumont-British expired.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock had already negotiated 1937 with RKO and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, but negotiations tapered off with Hitchcock's pay requests.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

During the filming of Woman Disappears, David O. Selznick made Hitchcock an offer for a Titanic-themed film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock flew in July 1938 to the United States to negotiate a deal that, after all, guaranteed him $40000+ for the film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The pay was additionally regular, meaning Hitchcock received his salary regardless of whether he was filming the film or not.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

As an additional pen in negotiations, Selznick had had the film rights interested in Hitchcock to Rebeka, which would become Hitchcock's second Hollywood film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[41] The Titanic film was cancelled, and the Hitchcocks' migration to the United States carried over into early 1939.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

During the interim, Hitchcock agreed to direct the film Jamaica Inn's Coastal Beats (1939).


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Although it was an audience success, criticism was nuve both after the premiere and later.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[41] In March 1939, the Hitchcocks left for the United States.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

According to the departed, in addition to cook and servant, also Joan Harrison, who had been Hitchcock's secretary since 1933.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[42] United States (1940—1980) Film career Selznick years (1940—1947) Hitchcock began at Selznick in April 1939 and teamed up with Joan Harrison to edit Rebeka's screenplay.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[43] During the production of Rebeka, Hitchcock had to get used to the Hollywood production system.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Being a producer like Selznick involved in everything — including creative work — was brand new to Hitchcock, since in Britain studio executives had been nothing more than businessmen interested in profit.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

However, despite pressure from Selznick, Hitchcock did not give up.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

In Hollywood, it was customary to film multiple versions of scenes from different angles of view, and from the footage filmed, the producer could cut a self-satisfying version if he wanted.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock planned the films in advance up to the final drawing and also filmed only and only what he had planned.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The material shot in the cutting phase could only be made the version Hitchcock wanted.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[44] Rebekka was a great audience and review success and brought Selznick another Academy Award for Best Film (the previous year she received the same award for the film Gone with the Wind).


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock was nominated for best director for the first time but lost to John Ford.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[45] Due to Gone with the Wind and Rebeka's high returns, Selznick was forced to make complex capital income transfers in order to avoid taxes, and because of them he was forced to suspend the production of films for three years.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Therefore, Selznick loaned Hitchcock to other studios over the next several years.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[46] Hitchcock's first film, “With the kind permission of David O. Selznick”, was Foreign Correspondent (1940) for independent producer Walter Wanger.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

It is a suspense film set in the wartime Netherlands, with many features from Hitchcock's film The 39 Steps.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

It was a review success and did well financially as well.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[47] After a foreign correspondent, Selznick loaned Hitchcock to RKO Pictures for two films.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The first was the traditional comedy film Mr and Mrs Smith (1941), unusual for Hitchcock, which was financially successful but the reviews it received were mixed.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[48] [49] The second was the romantic suspense film Dangerous Lies, which was Hitchcock's first joint film with Cary Grant.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The film was a great audience success, but critics were particularly critical of the film's watered-down ending.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[50] [51] Selznick was to serve as producer of Hitchcock's next film The Fifth Column Man (1942), but Selznick sold the entire package to Universal.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Set in wartime, the theme of the film is the same as that of 39 Steps and Dangerous Romance: the guilty suspect is forced to prove his innocence.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The film's audience and review success was a surprise to Hitchcock and the studio alike, as due to numerous compromises, no one was happy with the completed film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[52] [53] In the Shadow of Doubt (1943) Hitchcock filmed the exterior scenes outside the studio in an authentic setting, something he had done to great extent during the last silent film times.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Set in an American small-town idyll, the suspense film was, along with Rear Window, one of Hitchcock's biggest favourites from his own production.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[54] Donald Spoto speculates it's because in no other film of his life, Hitchcock gives this much indication of his own emotional life and persona.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[55] Hitchcock's third wartime film is Lifeboat (1944), all of whose events are set in a lifeboat.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock settled his traditional cameo role by appearing in an advert for a slimming product in a magazine read by someone on board the lifeboat.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[56] The lifeboat received somewhat scathing reviews, as it was considered to idolise the Nazis.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Apart from a few US big cities, it didn't inspire viewers either.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[57] After completion of lifeboat filming, Hitchcock spent 1944 eight months in England.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

There he directed for the British Ministry of Information the French-language propaganda short films Aventure Malgachen and Bon Voyage.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[58] The main anti of the trip, however, was the intensification of collaboration with old friend Sidney Bernstein, who was very interested in a joint, independent production company with Hitchcock.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[59] Hitchcock biographer John Russell Taylor considers Bewitched (1945) to be Hitchcock's first true American film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The US films that preceded it had been basically either English films or propaganda films.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Also set in a small American town, Shadow of Doubt is, in Taylor's view, a film that could only be made by a foreigner.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[60] Bewitched was an instant audience and review success, and was also the first blockbuster film to popularise psychoanalysis.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[61] Romantic suspense film The Key of Destiny (1946) is one of Hitchcock's most acclaimed films.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

It was a huge audience and review success, and especially Ingrid Bergman, who starred in the film, received rave reviews.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock's directing reads like a lesson in the making of the film: the course of events and the building of suspense is impeccable.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Some of the film's most impressive scenes include a long camera run from a general shot of party guests to a special close-up shot of the key in Bergman's hand, and a long kissing scene between Cary Grant and Bergman.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[62] [63] The courtroom drama 2 Drops of Wine (1947) was the last film Hitchcock made for Selznick, and it failed almost completely.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The film's huge losses played a part in Selznick's independent recording company being forced out of business.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[64] As an independent producer and the Warner years (1948—1954), Alfred Hitchcock had been dissatisfied with his contract with Selznick for several years.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

On the one hand, it had been about money; on the other, the lack of choice.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[65] [66] The idea of having his own production company began to be concreted during Hitchcock's London trip in 1944 when he discussed it with his old friend Sidney Bernstein.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[59] Negotiations continued in the summer of 1945 [67] and the creation of Transatlantic Pictures was reported in public in April 1946, when 2 drops of wine were still in production and Hitchcock's indifference to the entire film was a public secret in Hollywood.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[68] Transatlantic Pictures' first film was the suspense film Rope (1948), which was at the same time Hitchcock's first colour film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Reception of the film was lacklustre, but it nevertheless managed to turn a profit.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

However, Transatlantic's second film, the British-completed historical costume drama Capricorn in Signs (1949), failed so completely that the company drifted into bankruptcy.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[69] Following the bankruptcy of Transatlantic, Hitchcock entered into an agreement with Warner for several films.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

However, the first of these, The Curtain Lowers (1950), received a lacklustre reception, like the previous films.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[70] However, the subsequent Strangers on the Train (1951) was a huge success and began Hitchcock's return to the top of the film world.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Thematically, the men who “swap” the murders in the film continue the theme already present in the Shadow of Doubt of two alike people who represent, in a sense, the good and evil side of one person.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[71] [72] I Confess to making (1953) Hitchcock had been planning since the 1930s.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

However, the film, based on confessional secret, was not successful.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The more traditional — or “hitchcock-like” — Perfect Crime (1954) was already more successful.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

For its starring role, Hitchcock chose Grace Kelly, whom he immediately booked for his next two films as well.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The Perfect Crime was the last film Hitchcock made for Warner, after which he transferred to Paramount Pictures.

An article published by Bazin a short time later in “Cahiers du cinéma” triggered a debate over whether Hitchcock was a serious artist or just a talented storyteller and applicant of film technique.

Alfred Hitchcock

However, the film's British black humour did not bite into the US audience and the critics' guard, but the better the film fared in Britain and France.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[78] Much more significant to Hitchcock's fame was the second project of 1955: the television series Alfred Hitchcock presents (1955—1965).


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The agency that represented Hitchcock had drifted into the ownership of entertainment group MCA, and through that Hitchcock was asked about his interest in making a television series.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock agreed and set up Shamley Productions for that purpose.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

To be the producer of the series, he invited his former credit worker Joan Harrison.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock himself presented each episode in his own sarcastic, black-humored style.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Television appearances made Hitchcock, especially in the United States, unprecedented famous.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The popularity of the television series also spawned numerous ancillary items, including pocketbooks with names in the style of “Stories I wasn't allowed to do on TV”, as well as a suspense reading from Alfred Hitchcock Magazine (1956—).


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Due to his television production, Hitchcock's wealth grew considerably, and in 1964 he was already the fifth-largest owner of MCA (and by extension Universal).


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[79] But who did I murder Harry?


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

after Hitchcock's next film was a refilmation of The Man Who Knew Too Much, which was based on Hitchcock's own film from 1934.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

In an interview with François Truffaut, Hitchcock said the first version was made by a talented amateur, while the second was by a professional.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[80] The film was a cash success: within a few weeks it became the most lucrative film of the year in the United States


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[81] The Wrong Man, premiered in 1957, deals with Hitchcock's favourite theme of a falsely accused man.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

What is extraordinary, though, is that the film was based on true events and that Hitchcock even retained the real-life lines, even though they undermined the film's drama-like structure.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

John Russell Taylor regards the film as a fast-rendered black-and-white intermediate, Hitchcock's valentine to Warner Brothers.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[82] After the wrong man, Hitchcock began preparations for the film Vertigo — red tear that took longer than expected.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The film was supposed to be starring Vera Miles, but after she became pregnant, Kim Novak was hired to replace her.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[83] Vertigo's premiere reception was woolly: critics praised only Kim Novak's role performance.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[84] In the 1960s, Hitchcock pulled Vertigo out of recording, and it had its re-premiere a couple of decades later in 1983.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Since then, Vertigo's reputation as Hitchcock's best and most profound film has only grown.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

In a 2012 vote by Sight & Sound magazine, it was selected as the best film in the world [85].


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

During the production phase of Vertigo, Hitchcock contracted with MGM to film the Shipwreck of Hammond Innes's novel S/S Mary Deare.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

However, the subject matter of Innes's novel proved thankless, and therefore Hitchcock and screenwriter Ernest Lehman set about drafting the studio without knowing the script, which would involve a chase on Mount Rushmore.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The end result was a Dangerous Romance (1959).


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

After Vertigo's subdued reception, Dangerous Romance received an elven reception.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The film produced very well, and reviews were rave.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[86] Psycho was motivated by Hitchcock's quest to produce a cheap quality horror film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Having closely followed the film industry, Hitchcock had noticed how, for example, American International Pictures produced, on a lacklustre budget, shoddy films that nonetheless generated substantial profits.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The production of Psycho proceeded swiftly, as it was being made like an episode of the Alfred Hitchcock Presents series: a black-and-white shoot, a small budget, no new sets.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The premiere of Psycho was a very big audience success.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

In the United States alone, it grossed over $15 million, and the $800,000 budget film turned out to be Hitchcock's most lucrative.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The opinions of critics were mixed, and many critics were indignant already at having to watch the film among “ordinary” viewers.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[87] Psycho fundamentally revolutionised the genre of horror cinema by introducing an ordinary psychopathic murderer and moving the scenes of horror film into the circles of everyday life.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The success of Psycho triggered a flood of countless similar films.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[88] In Birds (1963) Hitchcock continued on the horror film line.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

It was the most expensive film of Hitchcock's career, and the advertising campaign for the film was also exceptionally large.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

There was no music at all in the film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

However, Hitchcock's standard composer Bernard Herrmann was responsible for the sound world of the film as a whole, which was designed with extreme precision.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Critics' reaction was lackluster, and although the birds and special effects were praised, the personalities were seen as latte and the beginning of the film slow-paced.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

However, viewers were not hampered by this; Birds became a great audience success.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[89] The Downhill (1964—1969) Following the Bird's audience success, Marnie — on a Dangerous Road (1964) received a sneaky reception from critics and viewers alike.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

For Hitchcock, Marnie was also a farewell to many longtime co-workers.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

For composer Bernard Herrmann, too, it remained the last Hitchcock film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[90] The Torn Curtain (1966), Hitchcock's next film, was completely torn to shreds by critics, and audiences agreed.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[91] Topaz, which premiered in 1969, received a murderous reception from critics and viewers alike.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[92] [93] Hitchcock's career and reputation were at stake.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

After three films worse than each other, Hitchcock's career was in 1969 in bottom-readings.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[92] Viewers and critics already began to speculate Hitchcock was an old-age fool.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[94] The return to the roots and the new rise of Topaz was the most expensive film of Hitchcock's career and, at the same time, the lossest.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

In many ways, Frenzy (1972) was a return to roots.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

It was filmed in England, and the budget was modest.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[95] Many scenes bring to mind The Tenant (1926), and the beginning scene of the film is like straight out of The Young and the Innocent (1937).


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[96] Frenzy became a great review and audience success.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

It produced as much as Psycho twelve years earlier.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[95] The clammiest reviews came from Britain, where the film's old-fashioned London image was disliked.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[97] The Inheritance, completed in 1976, remained Hitchcock's last film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

It was a comedic suspense film whose reception was favourable, and especially its humorousness was appreciated.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[98] Early in 1978, Hitchcock began preparations for The Short Night.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The screenwriter was initially Ernest Lehman but was replaced late in the year by David Freeman, who completed the script in May 1979.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Along with the script, pre-production was also underway: the making of the storyboard began as did the search for suitable actors.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[99] However, the entire project was cancelled when Hitchcock resigned on May 9, 1979.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Universal didn't hurt, as Hitchcock's office was emptied in a couple of days.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[100] Hitchcock was awarded the United States Film Institute's Life's Work Award in 1979.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Death Alfred Hitchcock died of kidney failure and heart problems at his Los Angeles home on April 29, 1980.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[101] His wife died two years later.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

At the beginning of the same year, Queen Elizabeth II had awarded him the rank of KBE (Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire), which Hitchcock received in his office on 3 January 1980.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[102] Cinematic style The fundamental principle of Hitchcock's cinematic way of narration can perhaps best be described by Hitchcock's own definition of shook (“shock”) and suspense (“suspense”).


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Shock is, according to Hitchcock, a scene in which men play cards in a room where an explosion unexpectedly occurs — Hitchcock has a long-winded scene with a lot of noise at the end.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The thrill, on the other hand, is the same scene where the viewer knows there is a time bomb under the table.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock did admit, though, that in such a state of tension, the bomb should not go off.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

However, Hitchcock broke his own “rule” several times (Sabotage and Psycho, for example).


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[103] The best examples of this are probably Vertigo — a red tear in which Hitchcock reveals the film's central surprise already halfway through the film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

In the making phase of Vertigo, Hitchcock had to defend this extraordinary plot twist.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

According to Hitchcock, it was important for the viewer to know more than the hero, because then the viewer understands both sides and also realizes what each is thinking and why they act the way they act.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

For Hitchcock, this was exactly the real drama of the film — not a shooking surprise ending.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[104] A characteristic feature of Hitchcock's films is also MacGuffin — an issue of great importance to the people of the film but completely indifferent to the viewer.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

It appears especially in Hitchcock spy films, and in them it is normally just an excuse for the description of an innocent hero's escape.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Some of the best examples of MacGuffin's masterful use are 39 Steps (1935) and Dangerous Romance (1959) — neither film survives properly, which is why everyone was so tauntingly after the heroes of the films.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

As an interesting side comment, it might have been mentioned that critics who thought Dangerous Romance was Hitchcock's best US film also think the 39 Steps was Hitchcock's best English film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[35] The technical challenges of cinematography were the most interesting for Hitchcock personally.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

In his first blockbuster film, Tenant Hitchcock used a glass plate as a ceiling in one scene to depict the secretiveness of a mysterious tenant living upstairs.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[105] In the Ransom of Purity (1929), Hitchcock used Schüfftan's method to create an evocation that the film would actually be shot in the British Museum [106].


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The most famous scenes of Hitchcock's career, apart from Psycho, are the long camera drives.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

In the young and innocent, the main characters of the film are looking for a criminal with a life mouse.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

In the film's closing scene, the camera leaves the roofline from the general view and advances 45m until only the twitchy eye of a life mouse is seen in the image.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[107] The most impressive camera drive from the American period is from the film Key of Destiny (1946), where the camera drive begins with a general view and ends up with a close-up of the key in Ingrid Bergman's hand.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[108] Actors used by Hitchcock Many Hitchcock films feature romantic side plots.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

The female characters in her films are often mystical blondes.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

When Grace Kelly withdrew from Hollywood to Monaco, Hitchcock hired Tippi Hedren, Kim Novak, Janet Leigh and Eva Marie Saint to play the female lead.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock's standard actors, in addition to Kelly, included Ingrid Bergman, James Stewart and Cary Grant.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Other famous performers of lead roles included Henry Fonda, Montgomery Clift, Sean Connery, Janet Leigh and Anthony Perkins.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

In his later years, Hitchcock found it better to work with actors still waiting for his breakthrough instead of the buzz names of the time.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

One reason for this has been said to have clashes with Paul Newman, the presenter of the Ruptured Curtain, about method acting.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Another reason must have been Hitchcock's desire to slash the budget by using cheaper (but not inferior) actors.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock has been said to have treated his actors boringly.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

In interviews, he said actors should be directed like cattle in a pasture.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Many of his actors considered themselves apprentices to a great director.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock demanded mutual respect and did not allow the actors to interfere with the directing.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

At the stage of shooting, Hitchcock's film was already ready, it just had to be “poked in a jar”.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Everything was meticulously prepared in the storyboard.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock considered the filming stage extremely boring, after all, he had already “seen” his film.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

Several female actors, including Tippi Hedgren, Grace Kelly, Vera Miles, Kim Novak and Janet Leigh, have later revealed they were subjected to sexual harassment by Hitchcock.


Question: What movie missed Hitchchef's last film?

Alfred Hitchcock

[109] Hitchcock starred in short cameo roles in his films 37 times.
