INFO ON THE MOVIE:
- I found Notorious to be an interesting film but not my favorite Hitchcock movie. It was too concerned with character relationships unlike many of his other films that are plot driven and filled with suspense. This one was more concerned with whether Devlin and Alicia would end up together rather than the intrigue of the situation. There was no real dominant point of view and it would change as is customary with Hitchcock films, much of the time, we were seeing the action unfold through Alicia’s eyes though and in typical Hitchcock style the camera angles were in the same proximity as where the characters were standing to maintain the sense of immediacy and realism.
- The real MacGuffin in Alfred Hitchcock’s, Notorious, was uranium ore, a poisonous radioactive material that was hidden in the wine bottles.
- Alfred Hitchcock usually made a cameo appearance in the movies he directed. In the movie “Notorious”, the cameo appearance was during the party scene at the house of Alexander Sebastian (portrayed by Claude Rains). Hitchcock was briefly seen drinking champagne, then he quickly left the party.
- The key element in a Hitchcock film is definitely suspense. There are many other common elements, like the idea that the audience is listening in to everything that is going on as if they were innocent bystanders. This is established by character placement and camera angles. There is always a MacGuffin, which is something that drives the plot and is of particular interest to the characters. The movies are about ordinary people and very often the wrong person is suspected. Staircases are common as is food and, of course, death, is a recurrent theme. The other Hitchcock films I have seen are successful narratives and create real suspense. The Birds was an excellent movie and Psych
