The Hitchcock & Truffaut Tapes

Woohoo! It’s gonna be a good day, today! First thing I stumbled on whilst drinking my morning coffee are these audio recordings from 1962 in which the French director François Truffaut carries out a series of extensive interviews with his colleague Alfred Hitchcock.

 

The-Hitchcock-Truffaut-Tapes

 

This is an exceptional document in which two of the greatest minds in 20th century film meet. The interviews were broadcasted on French radio and later edited down into a book. You can listen to (and download) a selection right here. (Truffaut didn’t speak much English, but there is a translator present) Or you can even download the whole collection in a single zip file by going to www.filmdetail.com.
