Hitchcock The World Over.
This year, the third National Film Preservation, For the Love of Film Blogathon, celebrates director Alfred Hitchcock. Film bloggers, over one hundred, are posting on everything and anything Hitch. It is the goal of this blogathon to help raise funds for the Foundation's restoration project,
The White Shadow (1924). The film was directed by Graham Cutts, but Hitchcock wrote, assistant-directed, and was involved on many aspects of the production. The goal is to raise $15,000 to stream this
once-lost, now-found, three-reel fragment online, free to all, and to
record the score by Michael Mortilla. Just click on
Donate and you will be taken to site where you can give whatever you can afford to this wonderful National Film Preservation project.
My small contribution features posters of a number of Hitchcock films. However, none of these posters were seen by U.S. audiences. Most are European, but there are also examples from South America, Japan, and Australia.

This poster was given to me by a friend who attended
the festival and it has been hanging in our house since 1979.
