Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2011 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2,3, University of Hildesheim (Institut für Anglistik), language: English, abstract: In my bachelor thesis I want to focus on the destruction and recreation of the “Hitchcock Blonde” in The Birds and Marnie. Hitchcock’s preference for blonde women appears like a leitmotif through all his films. As director he has the possibility to act out his position of power towards the Blonde. At first, Hitchcock creates her after his imaginations, then destructs her and finally builds her up again. Primarily in The Birds it becomes clear.
