For Hitchcock as for Renoir, as for that matter almost all American directors, a film has not succeeded unless it is a success, that is, unless it touches the public that one has had in mind right from the moment of choosing the subject matter to the end of production. There is nothing intrinsically better about one or the other it's simply a matter of different approaches.
For the former, cinema is an art of spectacle for the latter, it is an individual adventure. There are two kinds of directors: those who have the public in mind when they conceive and make their films and those who don't consider the public at all.
