oops, forgot to post! ;)

Saw this at Shepherd's Bush Vue, and it was very full.

Although Anthony Hopkins may have the prosthetics to make him look like Hitchcock, his voice is unmistakably Hopkins! Helen Mirren was lovely and fab as always. It is not a biopic of Hitchcock, more the making of Psycho, and the Alma slant is quite interesting. 7/10

I really enjoyed this until....i was told that hitchcock was nothing like the man portrayed in this film & that the murder fantasies were in fact a fantasy of this script writer

8/10 - Wouldn't have captured my interest as much were it not for the excellent acting from Hopkins and Mirren. Especially Hopkins - loved him.

I tried and failed to watch this film. I just could not get into it, in fact I fell asleep :(
