Hitch is definitively an englishman.
Even if he feels native in Hollywood, is whole humor and conception was made in England.
His english films have an certain charm that do not have is american period and vice versa...
I love both but I am particulary fond of the first one...Think of " Young And innocent ", his only optimistic film..Oh boy ! Do I love this picture.
Follow Ups:
Yes, if Hitchcock had only directed American films, or if his only good ones were American, there would be no controversy.Possibly the solution is to give him dual status - He's one of the great English directors, and one of the great American directors.
"The Young and the Innocent" - very hazy memories of that one, I'll have to see if it is available locally.
Yes, I can live with your formula.
He is one of the greatest , ever.
I reread his Truffaud interview, he was not only a brillant artisan but a most intellectual one. Chapeau Mr. Hitch.
