Welcome to the third episode of The Hitchcock Challenge!
Episode 3 Features a deep dive into Hitchcock's star making movie, The Lodger!
This episodes was made for our YouTube channel MoronicLogic and is presented here as it originally premiered.
Join Kenny, Sam, and Lantz as they watch every movie directed by Alfred Hitchcock in chronological order and break them down in extreme detail. The first ten episodes, covering Hitchcock’s silent career originally premiered (or will premiere) on YouTube as Presenting Alfred Hitchcock. Future episodes will be made with the podcast in mind.
This series is about reviving the excitement for these old movies, looking at them through a modern lens and actually challenging ourselves to step away from Netflix and corporate TV we normally love and consume. We do the research on the behind the scenes gossip, break down iconic and less than iconic scenes, give Maguffin reviews and talk WAY longer than anyone else you'll find online. Hitchcock history is discussed and we will add relevant research materials to the episode bio’s for your own further reading!
New episodes of The Hitchcock Challenge will appear on the 15th of every month!
