Aided by a roster of filmmakers, critics, and fansincluding Guillermo del Toro, Bret Easton Ellis, Jamie Lee Curtis, Eli Roth, and Peter Bogdanovichdirector Alexandre O. Philippe pulls back the curtain on the making of this cinematic gem, breaking it down frame by frame and unpacking Hitchcock’s dense web of allusions and double meanings.
