For me, it is difficult to objectively review Alfred Hitchcock movies simply because I like Hitchcock. His directorial debut was The Pleasure Garden, a 1925 silent film. The opening scene establishes Hitchcock's use of camera angle, a propensity for blonde women, and flawed men whether hero or villain. Young and Innocent released in 1937 contains all of his original flares including the expected self-cameo which started with his 1927 film The Lodger. Of course, you will enjoy Young and Innocent simply because It Is Hitchcock.
