hitchcock’s crossover universe
This small project is an extension of my study and interest in Hitchcock’s films. It examines various settings in a few selected Hitchcock movies and attempts to swap them up while maintaining the characters’ original stories. As I work on this, I start to wonder if the characters would remain the same in these various surroundings. Would the stories alter?
