The National Cinema Museum presents NODO ALLA GOLA (ROPE): A tribute to Alfred Hitchcock at Cinema Massimo.

The National Cinema Museum pays tribute to the films of Alfred Hitchcock – film director, screenwriter, actor and film producer – with a wide-ranging retrospective, which will end in March, entitled Rope. The tribute to Alfred Hitchcock is a programme organised by the National Cinema Museum and produced in partnership with the University of Turin’s DAMS college for the performing arts in partnership with the British Film Institute and Bologna city council’s film archive.

The retrospective does not include Hitchcock’s silent films, except for Blackmail and The Lodger (the latter will be shown in March) as they are currently being restored by the British Film Institute, which will present them for the 2012 London Olympics.

The first part of the retrospective will be inaugurated on Friday, 18th February 2011, at 4.30 p.m., in Cinema Massimo’s Screen Three, with a screening of the film The Man Who Knew Too Much.
