As patrickU points out, the Truffaut book is fantastic. Whatever your reservations about Hitchcock, Victor, you should pick a copy of it up and look it over. Many fascinating exchanges between the New Wave wunderkind and the old Hollywood pro.For example, Hitch admits Clift was difficult to work with in "I Confess", but adds that he loved the fact that Clift brought such conviction to his acting. He also liked the forward motion of Clift in his priestly garb...the robes swirling around his feet. He loved the shots of Clift moving forward, impelled towards a horrific fate.
