WIN TICKETS TO GUILLERMO DEL TORO’S HITCHCOCK MASTER CLASSES!
Anyone who’s had the pleasure of seeing Guillermo del Toro wax poetically about movies knows that the famous Hellboy director may very well be the world’s greatest film professor.
So what would be better than seeing him lecture about the world’s greatest filmmaker? The answer? Nothing. That’s what.
Well, fortunately for those of us round these here parts, beginning on May 7th at the TIFF LIGHTBOX, Guillermo del Toro will present four Alfred Hitchcock classics over four nights, offering a one-hour introduction and a one-hour post-screening discussion for each film.
And the good news is, Rue Morgue (in conjunction with the Rue Morgue Podcast & The Mortuary) has tickets to giveaway to each of the screenings.
First up, we have four pairs for the first film in the series, Hitchcock’s 1946 classic spy thriller NOTORIOUS starring Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman.
It screens on Monday, May 7th @ 7 p.m. EST.

Vertigo. It’s got everything you want: murder, mystery and a ice box scene that’s been debated for half a century. It’s a sickening descent into madness like no other. It literally manages to create the fear of heights for the viewer thanks to Burks & Hitchcock’s camera techniques. Gives me the willies
My favourite Alfred Hitchcock film is Psycho!
Vertigo: it’s uncanny
The Birds
Notorious!
