An innocent woman was hanged in 1923 and Hitchcock would spend the next fifty odd years telling us of her innocence, but in the nicest possible way -by entertaining us. Failure to acknowledge the historical context from which Hitchcock's cinema emerged has led to unwarranted psychological speculation which undermines that basic message. This book explores that context both in terms of the often violent social change that the 20th century brought with it, but also the history of the medium of cinema itself.
