在这部为敲诈而做的试音短片/纪录片片中,Like all movies, a test is filmed of a performer considered for a starring role. Alfred Hitchcock had to do this for Anny Ondra, a German actress who was cast in his first talkie- BLACKMAIL. Here we see Hitchcock, about 30 years old, with a head of wavy hair, test Ms. Oondra's recording voice by asking her naughty, embarrassing questions. You can either say; "Ewww! The pig!" or you can say "Okay, two pals having a laugh." Of no historic importance, has no insight to the Hitchcock style- just very interesting.
Alfred Hitchcock makes an experiment in this short film where he uses the sound device for the first time in a motion picture of his own. This is a sound test where the master of suspense and actress Anny Ondra have some humored dialogues, just checking the sound quality designed for Hitchcock's first talkie picture, the classic (1929).
