Upcoming WEA courses

Download booking information (pdf poster) for Highwaymen vs The Georgian Judicial System (23 January - 6 February 2024) and Alfred Hitchcock - The British Movies (27th February - 19th March 2024) and see the course description below:

Alfred Hitchcock is still regarded as the greatest filmmaker of all time. This course offers the opportunity to explore how he learnt his craft by examining his early movies which he made in Britain during the 1920s and 1930s. Among these are The Lodger, which is now regarded as the greatest British silent film, and Blackmail, which was the first sound film made in England. It was with The Man Who Knew Too Much in 1933 that Hitchcock began what is regarded as his first “Golden Period” which also includes classics like The 39 Steps and The Lady Vanishes. There are also neglected gems such as Young & Innocent. By analysing these films in depth, it will be seen how Hitchcock developed as a filmmaker and why Hollywood started to pay attention. For anyone who loves movies and enjoys talking about movies, this is a course that demonstrates how film can manipulate cinema audiences and how Hitchcock deserves the title of “The Master of Suspense.”
