       Conclusion: Hitchcock's influence. 
520    Although he was a visual stylist who once referred to 
       actors as cattle, Alfred Hitchcock also had a remarkable 
       talent for innovative and creative casting choices. The 
       director launched the careers of several actors and 
       completely changed the trajectory of others, many of whom 
       created some of the most iconic screen performances in 
       history. However, Hitchcock's ability to fit his leading 
       men and women into just the right parts has been a largely
       overlooked aspect of his filmmaking skills. In Hitchcock's
       Stars: Alfred Hitchcock and the Hollywood Studio System, 
       Lesley L. Coffin looks at how the director made the most 
       of the actors who were at his disposal for several 
       decades. From his first American production in 1940 to his
       final feature in 1976, Hitchcock's films were examples of 
       creative casting that strayed far from the norm during the
       structured Hollywood star system. Rather than examining 
       the cinematic aspects of his work, this book explores the 
       collaboration the director engaged in with some of the 
       most popular stars in Hollywood history. Coffin explains 
       how the master of on-screen manipulation exploited the 
       nervous insecurity of Joan Fontaine for the lead in 
       Rebecca, subverted the wholesome image of Robert Walker to
       play a deranged killer in Strangers on a Train, and 
       plucked an unknown actress to star in The Birds. 
       Documenting Hitchcock's Hollywood output from his arrival 
       in America through his final effort, Family Plot, the 
       author chronicles each film's casting process, 
       performances, and the personas each star brought to his or
       her role. Inspiring a fresh look at several films, this 
       book will engage fans and encourage them to reconsider a 
       number of Hitchcock classics in a new light.
