N2  - Alfred Hitchcock and the cinema grew up together. Born in 1899, four years after the first 'official' film showing in Paris, Hitchcock demonstrated an early fascination with the new art of the cinema. He entered the film industry in 1920, and by 1925, he had directed his first feature-length film, 'The Pleasure Garden'. His subsequent film career paralleled the phenomenal growth of the film industry during the years 1925 to 1976, the year of his last film.
