Blackmail 1929 Subtitles -The film's leading lady, Czech actress Anny Ondra, had a thick foreign accent that did not fit her character, a London shopgirl named Alice White. Because post-synchronization (dubbing in post-production) did not exist yet, Hitchcock hired actress Joan Barry to stand off-camera with a microphone and read Alice’s lines live while Ondra lip-syncing on set. This primitive dubbing created a strange, slightly disconnected vocal performance that subtitles help clarify. 3.
