"Screenwriter and film archivist Steven DeRosa follows Hitchcock and Hayes through each film from initial discussions to completed picture and also reveals the personal story - filled with inspiration and humor, jealousy and frustration - of the initial synergy between the two men before their relationship fell apart.

Writing with Hitchcock not only provides new insight into four films from a master but also sheds light on the mysterious process through which classic motion pictures are created."--BOOK JACKET.
