ABOUT HITCHCOCK AT HAND
He had us on the edge of our seats for over 50 films. Once a week on TV he seized us in his grip with just two droll words: “Good evening.” The “master of suspense” they called him. Mistaken identity, espionage, knowing too much or not enough, the desperate chase, the unfathomable puzzle – all were tools of the magic he used to make us squirm right up to the last moment. And how he delighted in making us dangle by our fingernails from great heights on national monuments. Anything to boost our anxiety until he revealed his surprising twist.
You know him well: Alfred Hitchcock.
Now you have the chance to experience Hitchcock yourself at the glorious, historic and mysterious Hand Mansion of South Nyack, in an evening of darkness and light you’ll never forget. Great moments from Hitchcock’s films will be skillfully woven into an evening that will be the talk of the county like our Notte di Fellini in ‘13. Great food, great wine, great fun at a great place: the Hand Mansion. Not to be missed!
