"Join the Conversation" The 39 Steps

A Film Screening & Discussion

The 39 Steps is a 1935 film directed by Alfred Hitchcock, and one of several of his films centered around an innocent man on the run. Orson Welles called the film a masterpiece.

This captivating “Join the Conversation” event is an opportunity to see—or perhaps see again—a classic Hitchcock film on the big screen and participate in a talk-back with noted Hitchcock scholar and SHU professor Sid Gottlieb.

Come with your questions. See you there!
