MacGuffin

00-32-52

MacGuffin is my graduation project that studies Alfred Hitchcock's use of the plot technique called the "MacGuffin". The MacGuffin is a plot device that drives the characters of the film forward but also may have no real significance or effect on the plot of the film itself. This project highlights the MacGuffins from 24 of Hitchcock's films capturing them through the eye of the close up and stripping them away from their original context.
