Description

As soon as we learned there was ANOTHER version of Hitchcock's Blackmail--the silent version, which was actually more popular at the time than the "talkie" version was--we knew we had to set aside the time to watch it. It's not exactly a different movie. Most of the cast is the same. Most of the shots are the same. But it IS different. Substantially so; it's the original way the film was shot, and it's silent. Even though its not its own movie, not really, a deep dive into Hitchcock's filmography wouldn't be complete without it, so we're sitting down to watch it. Join us :)
