I didn’t say anything when I posted the Hitchcock next year.
Will it be another instance like Infamous and Capote where Jones played Truman Capote in the former and was largely ignored while Philip Seymour Hoffman played the writer of “In Cold Blood” in the latter and ended up winning an Oscar?
“The Girl” is based on Donald Spoto’s book “Spellbound By Beauty” while Hitchcock is based on Stephen Rebello’s 1998 book “Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho” so between the two we’ll see the making of The Birds, Marnie and Psycho and the obvious comparisons between the two performances will be made.
“The Girl” will play on HBO on October 20 while Hitchcock will be released in theaters by 20th Century Fox some time next year. Check out the latest trailer for “The Girl” below and if you missed the first one click here where I also have a collection of eight images from the film..
