In the new film, lauded by critics, the legendary director's story is recounted from his perspective, with significant moments from his works used to demonstrate his unique style and technique.
However, this narration is not Hitchcock's own, but the work of McGowan, whose impersonation is described as uncannily accurate.
Moving through Hitchcock's long-standing career, the film casts light on his significant catalogue, exploring everything from early silent offerings to 1930s and wartime films, and the iconic pieces from the '50s and '60s and beyond.
With an intriguing retrospective gaze, 'My Name Is Alfred Hitchcock' offers insight into both the man behind the camera and the enduring legacy of his work.
