Dear Film-Philosophy subscribers: The above-named topics have been broached in recent entries for the "Editor's Day" feature of the Alfred Hitchcock Scholars/'MacGuffin' website, on its News & Comment page, whose URL is: http://www.labyrinth.net.au/~muffin/news-home_c.html Bill Krohn of 'Cahiers du Cinema' has praised the entries, noting in particular (based on an interview he did with Siegel) that 'Hitchcock was the major influence on Siegel'. The Munsterberg discussion, still running, relates to his use of Kant and Schopenhauer to praise (famously) how film 'tells us the human story by overcoming the forms of the outer world, namely, space, time and causality, and by adjusting the events to the forms of the inner world, namely, attention, memory, imagination and emotion'. The discussion has so far related specifically to two Hitchcock films: THE WRONG MAN (1957) and VERTIGO (1958), including the latter's McKittrick Hotel scene (which we seem to have discussed several times already - so it's nice to find a new angle!). Thanks for reading this. - Ken Mogg (Ed., 'The MacGuffin'). http://www.labyrinth.net.au/~muffin * * Film-Philosophy Email Discussion Salon.
