Hitchcock and Humor: Modes of Comedy in Twelve Defining Films
Wes D. Gehring
The author grew tired of misleading throwaway references to the director's "comic relief." This book examines what should be obvious: Hitchcock systematically incorporated assorted types of comedy - black humour, parody, farce/screwball comedy and romantic comedy - in his films to entertain his audience with "comic" thrillers.
