HITCHCOCK - THE LODGER(1927)


Alfred's first mystery movie! This is really
decent, but it's silent and I'm not particularly
fond of them! Decent story, but for a better
film about The Lodger watch the 1953 movie
The Man In The Attic!! C+

From IMDb.com:

This movie is fantastic and fascinating mostly because of its
director, but it would be fun either way. I'd say that it's
better than many films of the same period, but not to the same
extreme degree that Hitchcock's movies eventually achieved.

You can see it's his work, though. Hitchcock knew that what
made a suspenseful movie good had nothing to do with gore or
loud noises, and this shows even in his early work. The Lodger
has a distinctly Hitchcock feel to it--fun and scary--and it's
interesting to see how he gets around the lack of sound,
considering the fact that most (all?) of his other films
were talkies. - Devotchka
