So, there's this fascinating documentary called 'Topaz: An Appreciation' by Leonard Maltin from 2001. It dives into Hitchcock's 'Topaz' from 1969, which honestly had a rocky reception. Maltin's tone is really engaging as he explores the behind-the-scenes struggles, particularly with preview audiences. You get a real sense of the atmosphere that surrounded the film's release. The pacing here is deliberate, almost reflective, as he discusses themes of espionage and betrayal. Plus, he showcases some deleted scenes that fans of Hitchcock haven’t seen before. It's those little insights and the candidness about the film's challenges that make this worth watching, giving you a deeper appreciation for the craftsmanship involved.
