The way he talks is tempting me to take this course

There is no Michael Caine in Frenzy, though. The actor is called Barry Foster.

This looks like a cool course to do.

Regarding Hitchcock's preparation and fastidiousness. Surely that is down to the idea that if a director plans everything in advance, and only shoots what he/she needs, then no Producer or Studio can ever recut their film (as happened to so many other directors), because there is no other way to cut the film. Only the way that was planned out in advance.

Rope is tedious? Really? REALLY? It's an awesome movie, and very suspenseful, thrilling in fact

This students don't deserve him. He's awesome and they want to leave early.

Regarding the genius of the system. The counter argument might be to look at Spaghetti Westerns. Italian film makers didn't know the American Studio rules and the likes of Clint Eastwood and Lee Van Cleef weren't ever going to correct Sergio Leone, Sergio Corbucci et al, so we end up with a new, refreshing, exciting take on what was, by then, a very tired, formula behind most American Westerns. If 'Frenzy' can be held up as an example of why the system worked, then surely 'A Fist full of Dollars' is a great example why occasionally film makers and audiences were better off without it.
