Unter diesem Titel dreht Dario Argento derzeit seinen neuesten Film. Do you like Hitchcock? ist eine TV-Produktion für RAI Trade. Und für diese hat sich Argento, wie man diesem Setbericht entnehmen kann, nicht gerade wenig vorgenommen:
"When I write a film now I always visualise Turin. And TI PIACE HITCHCOCK is set in Turin because it’s all about cinema, my cinema. Turin is actually where the Italian Film Industry was based in the silent era before Mussolini moved it to Rome. It is also a little known fact that Italians invented the full-length feature film – CABIRIA (1914) for example was 150 minutes long! And the first Italian movie theatre was built in Turin. HITCHCOCK is set in the city because it’s a homage not just to early cinema and Alfred Hitchcock but German expressionism, Robert Weine and THE CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI, F.W. Murnau and NOSFERATU, THE GOLEM, Fritz Lang of course, Russian movies during the Stalin era, Peter Lorre etc. TWO EVIL EYES was my tribute to Edgar Allan Poe and now it’s Hitchcock’s turn. This film is my valentine to all the movies, directors and stars I’ve loved throughout the years."
Ob nach dem nahezu allseits als gescheitert empfundenen Il Cartaio wieder mal ein richtig guter Argento zu erwarten ist? Die ersten Bilder lassen zumindest schon mal auf ein visuell überzeugendes Werk hoffen.
