The Women Who Knew Too Much: Hitchcock and Feminist Theory

In The Women Who Knew Too Much, Tania Modleski claims that critical approaches to Hitchcock have falsely fallen into two camps: either he is seen as a misogynist, or he is seen as sympathetic to women in his demonstration of women's plight in patriarchy. In opposition to these positions, Modleski asserts that Hitchcock is deeply ambivalent towards his female characters.Modleski, Tania is the author of 'The Women Who Knew Too Much: Hitchcock and Feminist Theory', published 1987 under ISBN 9780416017014 and ISBN 0416017010.
