Double Take
Sundance Film Festival Favorites
•
1h 19m
Directed by Johan Grimonprez • Documentary • 2009 • Belgium, Germany, Netherlands • English
Featuring Alfred Hitchcock, Ron Burrage, Mark Perry
Johan Grimonprez uniquely combines 60's advertising, hysterical Red Menace newsreels, and Alfred Hitchcock into a black comedy journey through the global commoditization of fear. This essay film ingeniously blends archive footage with cryptic allusions to an imaginary murder plot involving Hitchcock and his doppelgänger to paint a vivid portrait of American media run amok during the Cold War.
