Bulldog Drummond

From Alfred Hitchcock Wiki

[edit] Introduction

On 01/Feb/1933, The Times newspaper announced that Hitchcock was directing a film based on the popular "Bulldog Drummond" books. As the rights to the books were unavailable, Hitchcock instead directed The Man Who Knew Too Much.

Mr. Alfred Hitchcock has signed a contract to make pictures for the newly formed British company known as London Film Productions. He will also act in an executive capacity. Last year Mr. Hitchcock was appointed supervisor of productions to British International Pictures, which company he is now leaving. At present he is making a film of Bulldog Drummond for British International Pictures.
