American Cinematographer - April 2013 - K1

April 2013

There is no more venerated name in the world of cinema
than Alfred Hitchcock. His movies and methods have been
studied and emulated by ﬁlmmakers around the world,
and his impact on the art of directing is unsurpassed. The
master of suspense made ﬁlms in the United Kingdom and
in Hollywood, demonstrating the adage that moving images
speak a global language.
Surprisingly, in light of these facts, Hitchcock’s very early
silent era work — ﬁlms that offer a fascinating glimpse
into the development of his style — has been in bad shape.
Deluxe and the British Film Institute (BFI) have corrected this,
gathering as many elements of these early ﬁlms as possible
and using the latest restoration techniques to resurrect them.
The project required thousands of hours of painstaking work.
Hitchcock fans have rejoiced.
Hitchcock aﬁcionados of future generations will also be
certain to beneﬁt, as the BFI and Deluxe used ﬁlm technology
to safely archive and future-proof the restored classics.
Archivists note that these movies would not exist today had
they been stored on a less reliable medium. Black-and-white
archival emulsions promise centuries of easy and accurate
reproduction of these cultural treasures, regardless of future
display formats.
The ﬁlms were made in the UK between 1925 and 1929,
and the titles include The Ring, The Manxman, Blackmail, The

Farmer’s Wife, Champagne, Easy Virtue, The Lodger, The
Pleasure Garden and Downhill.
The Lodger was previously the best known of the
bunch, and that ﬁlm is cited by ﬁlm historians as a
turning point, displaying many characteristics that
would later come to be called “Hitchcockian” and
enjoying a degree of commercial success that
boosted the director’s career trajectory.
The BFI — one of the world’s largest
collections of ﬁlm and television with over
180,000 titles — laid a strong foundation
for the restorations with
technical and
