The film Hitchcock played by Anthony Hopkins chronicles famed directed Alfred Hitchcock during the Psycho era of his career. It looks as if Sir Hopkins has nailed down the role and brought the larger than life director to screen.

“Hitchcock’s so enigmatic in one sense,” director Sacha Gervasi told EW about the challenge of making the movie. “Someone who portrays zero emotion. We didn’t really know emotionally that much about Hitchcock, and suddenly you have this whole world that opens up when Anthony Hopkins plays the role. It’s extraordinary. And he really enjoyed tiptoeing up to people who had just arrived on the set and going, ‘Good evening.’ Making people jump. I think he really found the role quite delicious.”

Enjoy the trailer, and leave your thoughts on whether this looks good or not to you! “Hitchcock” will slash it’s way into theaters November 23rd. I smell an oscar for Hopkins!
