Discussing Alfred Hitchcock's cameo roles, the narrator says, "... and trying to climb aboard a train holding a cello case in L'inconnu du Nord-Express (1951)." In fact, Hitchcock is holding a double bass (bass fiddle) in its case.

Was this created by AI?

I'll admit my bias off the top: I think Hitchc0ck in England was a cinematic genius. Whereas Hitchc-ck in Hollywood was a hack. So this little documentary should interest me, yes?

Wrong.

I mean, the movie images are there.

But the writing is so dull my attention kept wandering. Yet it gets worse: the narration drove me to imdb to check whether it was generated by AI. Who talks like this? Apparently, Elvis Mitchell does.

He speaks like he's inserting random commas and periods in sentences. Very distracting.

He's also a monotone.

I'd be interested in re-watching this documentary if they re-record the narration. There might actually be something interesting here.
