Staging Patrick Hamilton's ROPE / playing the role of Brandon plus First Responses to Hitchcock's ROPE with actor Jack Hammett
2024/11/29
You are invited back into the Talking Hitchcock screening room! Joining me this month is special guest actor Jack Hammett who starred in the role of Brandon in Theatre Clwyds adaptation of Patrick Hamilton’s ROPE which I saw earlier this year. As listeners may know by now, ROPE is a firm Hitchcock favourite of mine and therefore I was thrilled to have the opportunity to speak with Jack! In the first part of the podcast, we get underneath the charming, controlled and pristine exterior of Brandon, as Jack shares details of how he brought the character life in performance, including his research, preparation and readings of the role. In the second part of our discussion, Jack shares his exclusive thoughts and initial responses to Hitchcock’s ROPE which he watched for the first time ahead of our discussion. To get such fresh and new takes on ROPE was such a treat for me indeed and I am so pleased to bring you this episode of Talking Hitchcock!    Where to find Talking Hitchcock and Links to Rebecca’s Work Find Talking Hitchcock on X @hitch_pod and Instagram @talkinghitchpod where you can support the podcast and keep up to date with releases or email me on [email protected] Read Rebecca’s editorial for FANGORIA to mark ROPE’s 75th anniversary-Cat And Mouse: Who Is The Real Villain Of Hitchcock's ROPE?

Interview with Neil Alcock-Author of HITCHOLOGY

Join creator and host, Hitchcock enthusiast, Rebecca McCallum with special guest author and free-lance writer Neil Alcock to discuss his new book Hitchology- A Film-by-Film Guide to the Styles and Themes of Alfred Hitchcock-a book which considers how Hitchcock uses narrative tropes and formal flourishes to create some of cinema’s most unforgettable experiences across Hitchcock’s filmography. In this episode we discuss Neil’s book at length as well as his fascinating process for selecting a wonderful list of the Essential 10. We also take time to discuss several Hitchcock films in detail including The Lodger, Blackmail, Rebecca, Rope, Vertigo and North by Northwest. This was such an enjoyable, open and organic conversation that went in so many exciting directions, you may even say we found ourselves caught in an endless Vertigo-like spiral!

You are invited back into the Talking Hitchcock screening room for another episode of Hitch Takes where Rebecca explores a specific topic, theory or idea in detail!   Join creator and host, Hitchcock enthusiast Rebecca McCallum as she presents an exclusive theory– ‘Jasper as the Rebecca Stand In’. Rebecca applies close critical analysis of key scenes in the film in support of this theory whilst also inviting many opportunities for questions around the magnetic and magnificent presence of Rebecca! The second Mrs de Winter may have arrived, but the first Mrs de Winter is going nowhere-and she might just be manifesting her presence and strength of will, through the silent and ominous Jasper.
