This book is a thorough analysis of Alfred Hitchcock’s Rope (1948) and of its multiple connections with the Leopold and Loeb murder case and the adaptation of Patrick Hamilton’s eponymous play.  As an all-encompassing portrait of the movie, the book discusses its aesthetics, style, role within cinema history, challenges in  production, innovations introduced and of course Hitchcock’s signature features. However, as the analysis unfolds, the film reveals itself as an actual journey through the nightmares and the hopes that characterized the 20th century. Nazism and anti-Nazism, antisemitism, homophobia, democracy and totalitarianism, capital punishment and second chances, human rights, World War II, misogyny, tolerance and discrimination, Supermanism and humanism, artistic freedom and censorship. Subtly, often between the lines, and with Hitchcock’s usual dark humor, Rope is nevertheless a much stronger social and political statementthan it was ever given credit for.  The Intertextual Knot is aimed at a varied readership, including film scholars, historians, philosophers and film enthusiasts.
