Originally published in 1988, The Women Who Knew Too Much remains a
classic work in film theory and feminist criticism. The book
consists of a theoretical introduction and analyses of seven
important films by Alfred Hitchcock, each of which provides a basis
for an analysis of the female spectator as well as of the male
spectator. Modleski considers the emotional and psychic investments
of men and women in female characters whose stories often undermine
the mastery of the cinematic "master of suspense." The third
edition features an interview with the author by David Greven, in
which he and Modleski reflect on how feminist and queer approaches
to Hitchcock studies may be brought into dialogue. A teaching guide
and discussion questions by Ned Schantz help instructors and
students to delve into this seminal work of feminist film theory.
