FOUR O'CLOCK
AFTER THE SUCCESS of his half-hour suspense series, Alfred Hitchcock Presents, Hollywood director Alfred Hitchcock started an hour series, titled Suspicion (also the name of his 1941 movie). The first show in this series (1958) was directed by Hitchcock himself, and written by Cornell Woolwich, who also wrote the novel on which Hitchcock's 1953 film, Rear Window, was based. The show is called "Four O'Clock" and stars Nancy Wilson and E. G. Marshall (the doctor in the film, The Left Hand of God). View the show in 6 parts (6/6): 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. It's also available on youtube in eight shorter segments. If you choose not to use these links (above), do a search (<Suspicion Four O'Clock>). Don't confuse two different uploads (6/6, 8/8) or there'll be an overlap in the video. Make sure, for example, that segment 2 says 2/6 instead of 2/8! Then answer the following questions by Monday.1.
