Watching this now at home on Netflix DVD. It's really interesting. Several people interviewed in between the recording of Hitch and Truffaut talking plus a narrator filling in bits and pieces. Lots of film clips illustrating what they're talking about. I'm only about half way through it and twice Hitchcock has said "Off the record" and the tape stops so he can tell Truffaut something in confidence.

If you're a Hitchcock fan I think you'll really like this.
