L'ora di Hitchcock

La storia

L'ora di Hitchcock (The Alfred Hitchcock Hour) è una serie televisiva statunitense creata da Alfred Hitchcock, andata in onda dal 1962 al 1965, che prese il posto della precedente Alfred Hitchcock presenta. La serie fu così chiamata poiché la durata di ciascun episodio era di cinquanta minuti anziché solo venticinque come nelle precedenti sette stagioni.

La serie vanta autori quali Charles Beaumont, Richard Matheson, Robert Bloch, James Bridges, Ray Bradbury e registi come William Friedkin e Sydney Pollack. Tra i compositori si ricorda Bernard Herrmann, responsabile per le musiche nelle ultime due stagioni.

Come nella serie precedente, ogni episodio è presentato da Hitchcock. In totale furono trasmessi 93 episodi. Gli episodi sono caratterizzati da elementi e soggetti tipici della letteratura di genere, con spunti a volte soprannaturali e comunque sempre incentrati sul mistero e l'imprevisto.
