Alfred Hitchcock: Family Plot






"Family Plot" is Hitchcock's last film and it feels like a parody of his filmmaking. The plot seems very campy compared to most of his films, involving psychics and a very 70s feel to it. You can see the PREVIEW to decide for yourself.

A detailed examination of the use of storyboards and floorplans in "Family Plot" is listed at the FAMILY PLOT CEMETERY SEQUENCE Of particular interest in the storyboard is how the camera movements and the camera angles are illustrated. The use of floorplans is especially important in complex scenes involving multiple actors and complicated camera moves.
