Casual film buffs and true enthusiasts alike will treasure a chance to get a professional tour through the work of one of the key masters of the first century of cinema, as the University of Toledo presents a special online course in the work of Alfred Hitchcock. This Adult Liberal Studies seminar, taught by Associate Professor of English Robert Turley, will zero in on key works in the auteur's canon, including the classics Rear Window, Psycho and Vertigo (recently named the best film of all time by Sight & Sound). Lectures and discussions will give cinema fans unique insight into an artist who did so much to create the basic vocabulary of the movies we enjoy today.
