Industry Reviews "This jumbled collection of studio memos, storyboards, meeting transcripts, script revisions, and personal notes pertaining to Alfred Hitchcock is both fascinating and frustrating....Auiler rightly focuses on the less-venerated projects...but he leaves the dizzying task of deciphering most of the material to the reader." Entertainment Weekly - Charles Winecoff (06/26/1999)
"IN HITCHCOCK'S SECRET NOTEBOOKS Dan Auiler has gathered material from the director's files--story treatments, screenplay drafts, letters exchanged with collaborators and associates, sketches, storyboards, production photographs; it is 'secret' only in that most of it has not previously been brought to light. The same papers were the chief source for the useful production history of VERTIGO AUILER published last year. Bringing together material on several films, the new volume has been organised according to successive stages in the making of a film--'Building the Screenplay', 'Preparing the Visual', 'Putting It All Together'--so that each chapter rounds up documentation on a number of different films."
