DirectorThe early years in the film industryIn the early part of his career,Alfred Hitchcock was widelyconsidered to be Britains best film director.His silent films weregreeted with great enthusiasm by critics,and,at a time ofexpansion and increasing excitement for the British film industry,they were evidence that British films had reached an internationalstandard.In 1929,Hitchcock was hailed by British critics for a filmwhich used sound and dialogue with more imagination than anyHollywood or European film of the time.And in the mid-1930s,Hitchcocks films gave energy to the film industry with their fastpace and British sense of humor.After the outbreak of the Second World War the British press saidhe had gone Hollywood.Throughout the 1940s and 1950s,Britishcritics favored realism over all else,and they looked down upon theHollywood style that characterized much of Hitchcocks work duringthis time.In the 1960s and 1970s,when critics celebrated Hitchcocks films,itwas mainly the Hollywood Hitchcock that they admired,and these(largely American and French)critics had little interest in his Britishfilms.Of course Hitchcocks public character in his later years wasstill very closely associated with his English background,as hisappearances on the Alfred Hitchcock Presents television programsdemonstrated.But his dark suits,manners,and humor seemed tobe the style of a person overseas.It can be surprising,then,to discover the respect that Hitchcockenjoyed in his native country during his first dozen years as adirector.When one of his films was first shown in 1926,it wasdeclared to be a great piece of art and its director was proclaimedto be a young genius.Hitchcock was already twenty-seven yearsold at the time,but his rise did seem to have been remarkable.Hitchcocks start in filmsHe was born on the eastern edge of London,in Leytonstone,Essex,on 13th,August,1899,and his family lived above a shop onLeytonstone High Road and later in the East End neighborhood ofPoplar and Stepney.He left school at the age of fourteen,andworked as a clerk at the Henley Telegraph(电 报)Company andtook evening lessons in drawing at the University of London.In1919,this skill enabled him to get a job as a title card designer withthe American production company Famous Players-Lasky when itbegan making films in a converted power station in Islington.The Americans did not stay long in Islington,but Hitchcocks risequickened when the studio was taken over by Michael BalconsGainsborough Pictures in 1924.Balcon allowed Hitchcock to workat different jobs for Gainsborough:as a set designer,writer,editorand as the assistant director to Graham Cutts,who was thenGainsboroughs top director.The young directorIn 1925,Hitchcock was given his own assignments,as he directedtwo films that were filmed in Munichs Emelka Studios as part of adeal between Gainsborough and the German producer ErichPommer.Neither film attracted much attention,and it was not untilhis third film,The Lodger(房 客),that both the critics and the publictook notice of Hitchcock.Indeed,The Lodger seemed able to please just about everyone.Ithad techniques informed by the international art cinema of the1920s,a narrative form borrowed from Hollywood,and an Englishsubject matter.It was a remarkable combination and a greatexample of late silent cinema.The Lodger aso introduced severalof Hitchcocks most enduring story elements:a hero whose virtue isin doubt,a love filled with suspicion,humor,and an interest inbeautiful women.These elements would endure for many years.The Hitchcock touchDuring these early years Hitchcock was known primarily for thevisual creativity of his films.The German director F.W.Murnau wasa strong influence in this regard.While filming in Germany in 1924,Hitchcock visited Murnau.It was a key moment in his developmentas a filmmaker.Murnaus interest in an unchained camera and ina pure cinema*(telling the story in visual terms alone)would bethe lifelong interest of Hitchcocks too.He was also a member ofthe London Film Society,and its screening of French,German andSoviet art films,as well as early and pioneering American films,provided a unique forum for the consideration of film form andtechnique,and one that influenced Hitchcock and many otherBritish filmmakers of the time.One can further point to Hitchcocks interest in drawing as a factorthat enriched and enhanced the visual dynamic（强 度）of his films.In his silent films,this was so striking that critics regularly discussedthe Hitchcock touch,referring to the visually dramatic sequencesthat distinguished his work.Such moments might convey anamusing,dark or romantic story plot（故 事 情 节），or they mightexplain the meaning of the story,but they always demonstrated thedirectors ability to tell the story without relying on dialogues orexplanations.Britains finestIn 1927 Hitchcock left Gainsborough for the larger BritishInternational Pictures（BIP）,and his new contract made him thehighest paid director in Britain.Being assigned to direct BIPs firsttalking film was another sign of his status,and the film proved thatsuch regard was fully deserved.At the time,many peopleinterested in cinema thought that the use of speech would reducecinema to being only pictures of people talking,but Hitchcocksinventive use of sound demonstrated that the new technologyactually opened a new world of possibilities.Many have said that Hitchcock found his true calling with the 1930sthrillers,while for others this concentration on one type of filmrepresented a limitation of Hitchcocks talents and interests.Eitherway,their popularity ensured that he was invited to Hollywood,andin 1939 he took up a contract with the producer David O.Selznick.This opportunity must have looked great.In the late 1930s,theBritish film industry had entered a financial crisis,and its difficultieswould only become larger with the start of war.Yet it is evident thatHitchcock was eager to hold onto ties with Britain.He returned inwartime to make two short films for the Ministry of Information.In the immediate post-war period,he formed a production companythat was designed to enable him to make films in Britain,and to freehim from the interference of Hollywood producers such as Selznick.Of the companys two films only one was filmed in Britain,andalthough both are remembered for their bold experimentation withlong takes and deep focus,neither was a popular success.Hiscompany soon folded,and Hitchcock subsequently worked with arange of Hollywood studios.He made only two further films in Britain.The first was a thriller setin the West End theatre world that had excited him in his youth,butthe films sense of time and place was weakened by its internationalcast and its curiously limited use of location shooting.The second,shown in 1972,seemed to hit much closer to home and could beseen to represent a remake of The Lodger.The story was centeredon a man who was wrongly believed to be a killer of women,and itwas filmed with a largely British cast and in a London setting,theold Covent Garden market.This is not Hitchcocks last film,but itcan be seen as a revisiting of his careers dramatic beginnings inBritain and as a homecoming for a director who found his greatestsuccess and popularity abroad.1.Thanks to Hitchcocks early films,the British could
