The Alfred Hitchcock Locations Walks in London and New York

By: Sandra Shevey

Sandra Shevey takes visitors to New York on a suspenseful excursion through Manhattan and Queens in the footsteps of director Alfred Hitchcock who immortalised some of New York City`s most romantic neighborhoods in 9 of his New York-based films.

The walk which goes every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday throughout the year, lasts for 3 hours and departs at llam.

The cost is $25 excl Metrocard.

The voyage takes us to such locales as midtown Manhattan, Greenwich Village, Jackson Heights, Forest Hills and Astoria.

Films profiled include `North by Northwest`, `The Wrong Man`, `Strangers on a Train`, `Topaz`Find Article, `Rear Window` and `Spellbound`.

Seeing the actual sites of Hitchcock`s locations enables us to understand the distortions- ie the ways that his imagination transformed sites. The result allows us to penetrate the magic of this masterful genius.
