 Spellbound
  • Director: Alfred Hitchcock
  • Year: 1945

Unravelling a nation’s psychic damage

Psychology was a way to make sense of the madness of war and God’s silence at the violence and carnage of the Nazis. Hitchcock was using the plot to provide the sort of assurance his audience needed at the war’s end - the massive sacrifice had been for a meaningful purpose.
