screenwriting lesson or two in it. Fun for me, because I get to re-
watch all of these great (and some not-so-great) movies, and just
about all of them have some sort of experiment in them. Hitchcock
challenging himself.
This week the film is SPELLBOUND with Ingrid Bergman and Gregory Peck
and Leo G. Carroll... and a Dali dream sequence.
If you scroll down a couple of posts, you'll find an index to all of
