viii, 261 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm In this study of Alfred Hitchcock's two television series, Jan Olsson demonstrates how Hitchcock created a personal brand built on his large body, gastronomical proclivities, and the manipulation of bodies and food, which allowed him to mark his creative oeuvre as strictly his own. Feeding the legend -- Interlude 1. Tasty bodies -- Smaller screen, bigger brand : hosting "Hitchcock" -- Interlude 2. Double hosting -- Hitchcockian reflections : traces, proxies, doubles, and corpses. Jan Olsson.
