520			_a'Frenzy' was Alfred Hitchcock's penultimate film, & arguably one of his most misunderstood and neglected. Whereas even 'Psycho' did eventually become respectable - indeed, it is a good contender for the most admired of the Master's films - 'Frenzy' still remains problematic for many. While Raymond De Foery makes his feelings clear in the title of his book, 'Alfred Hitchcock's Frenzy: The Last Masterpiece', Hitchcock's controversial biographer Donald Spoto calls the film 'repulsive' & 'a closed & coldly negative vision of human possibility'. 'Frenzy' is perhaps Hitchcock's most nakedly autobiographical film, representing both a comeback & farewell to the city of his birth. But it started out as a very different kind of project. This book discusses the evolution of the film, its production, reception, & place in Hitchcock's oeuvre, as well as its status as a key film of 'seventies' British cinema.
