Subject matter and acting were, for him, subordinate to \"all of the technical aspects that made the audience scream.\" Focusing on onscreen objects in Hitchcock's films, this study examines staircases, eyeglasses, lamps, doors, candles, cigarettes, buildings, monuments, statues and dozens of other props that the director treated as subjective protagonists, their roles nearly equal to the actors'. Examining each of the director's 52 extant films, this book provides a comprehensive exploration of Hitchcock's treatment of objects as subjects.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marc Raymond Strauss\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0786443081\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780786443086\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McFarland \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/22\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 204\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.50d","brand":"Marc Raymond Strauss","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44079117172991,"sku":"9780786443086","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e3a3e176-0af2-4957-aa1e-9c7be96c1530.jpg?v=1685479390","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hitchcocks-objects-as-subjects-marc-raymond-strauss-9780786443086","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
