Writer Caroline Young will present a talk on her recently published book, Fashioning Hitchcock: Stories Behind the Costumes, which examinations of the contributions of costume designers to Hitchcock's illustrious film career. Following the short talk, we will screen The 39 Steps - Alfred Hitchcock’s 1935 classic set in Scotland, about an ordinary man swept into a deadly spy plot, forcing him on a frantic journey from London to the Scottish moors to clear his name and stop a dangerous conspiracy. Blending suspense, wit, romance, and inventive twists, it’s praised for its brisk pacing, sharp direction, and the charming chemistry between Robert Donat and Madeleine Carroll, making it a must-watch for fans of thrillers. Following this there will be a short Q&A with the author. Access information Waterstones Sauchiehall Street has a passenger lift to all levels of the building. This screening of The 39 Steps (1935) will include descriptive subtitles (also known as HOH subtitles) in English. The talk will not be subtitled. Images courtesy of Park Circus/ITV.
