The Lodger: A Story of the London Fog

Released in 1927, The Lodger: A Story of the London Fog is Alfred Hitchcock's first true thriller and the founding work of his career.

The story transports us to a foggy London, where a serial killer reminiscent of Jack the Ripper is spreading terror. At the same time, an enigmatic man (Ivor Novello), who bears a striking resemblance to the description of the murderer, moves in with the Bunting family to rent a room. Throughout the film, viewers are plunged into constant doubt about the tenant's guilt.

With this film, Hitchcock laid the foundations for his style, which would make him the undisputed master of suspense. A must-see for all lovers of mystery and classic cinema, presented by conductor Philippe Béran!
