Happy New Year, darlings! I hope 2020 is full of marvelous things for all of us.

Did you know that I watched nearly all of the Hitchcock talkies, in chronological order, last year and the year before? It was a fascinating project, I feel like I understand the medium of film so much better, having watched so much by one of its undisputed masters. His use of the camera is so pure.

I'm dedicating the month of January to pairs in Hitch's movies, with the first two weeks highlighting his daughter, the adorable Pat Hitchcock. First, *Strangers On a Train:*

Diva: Ruth Roman (the glamorous brunette)

Mensch: Pat Hitchcock (the cutie in the glasses)
