Good Not Great
Usually movies made for the Big Screen are better than TV movies. This is not the case for Hitchcock. After seeing "The Girl" on HBO I was intrigued by Hitchcock, the man. "The Girl" was about the making of "The Birds" and Hitchcock's obsession with Tippi Hedren. It is a must see. This was a good follow up movie, but not the best. As wonderful an actor as Anthony Hopkins is, his portrayal of Hitchcock does not hold a candle to the HBO version. If you are a fan of behind the scenes looks at high profile people, as I am, see this movie. But be sure to add "The Girl" to your must see list. You decide which is the more compelling story, and better portrayal of the characters.
