A Year of Hitchcock The Official Podcast

The Year of Hitchcock podcast is BACK for another round of talk about classic movies, Alfred Hitchcock, and the occasional chatter about whatever happens to spring into our heads. After a lengthy hiatus that we THOUGHT marked the end of the show, we got requests for our return. We listened. So now Eric San Juan and Jim McDevitt have decided to get the podcast up and running again. This time, rather than a film-by-film look at Hitchcock's work, we'll be discussing classic films, legendary actors and actresses, our favorite directors, great television, and whatever else springs to mind ... along with a helping of Alfred Hitchcock news every episode. In the first episode of our return, we discuss Hitchcock's relationship with Tippi Hedren, his work on Vertigo, the legend that is Citizen Kane, and other odds and ends. Look forward to new episodes each month. Enjoy! Blogspot readers, just click the headline to download the episode!
