| | Expressionism |
| | Expressionism was an art movement associated mainly with German painting and film of the early 20th century, particularly following World War I. Hitchcock, a lifelong art collector, was familiar with German expressionist filmmaking from his work in Germany during the mid-1920s. | | | The stylistic premise of Expressionism was that the artist's response to the environment was so intense that it affected the form of the art. | | | The goal of Expressionism was to evoke the subjective responses that the artist has to objects or events. |
