Description During this masterclass hosted by the Suraj Israni Center for Cinematic Arts, filmmaker Alexandre O. Philippe will discuss his approaches to making movies about movies. The director of "Lynch/Oz" (2022), "78/52: Hitchcock's Shower Scene" (2017), and "Memory: The Origins of Alien" (2019) will talk about how his approach to documentary and cultural-commentary unfolds through research, production, and post-production. Philippe will discuss these aspects of his filmmaking practice, among others, with Center director Michael Trigilio. About Alexandre O. Philippe Swiss American filmmaker Alexandre O. Philippe has written and directed numerous award-winning films and documentaries, many of which take on the role of unpacking the most influential works of master filmmakers. His most recent film, "78/52: Hitchcock’s Shower Scene", is a documentary about Alfred Hitchcock’s iconic shower scene from Psycho. The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and screened extensively at festivals before its release by IFC Films. The documentary explores the intangible cinematic space between the shots and delves into Hitchcock’s genius in unprecedented fashion. It is the first feature-length investigation into the art, craft, and influence of a single extraordinary scene. Philippe holds a master’s degree in dramatic writing from New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts and is creative director at Exhibit A Pictures. Other past works include Doc of the Dead, The People vs. George Lucas, and an ongoing series of short films for The Criterion Collection titled Double Exposure. Over the years, he has conducted numerous film analyses and writing seminars at schools, universities, film festivals, and museums around the world, featuring in-depth deconstructions of classic and contemporary films. Philippe has also served on several film-festival juries, including the Edinburgh International Film Festival, Rome Film Festival, and New Zealand Film Awards. Questions? Email us.
