i made similar observations a bit back elsewhere but did not know that Glen
Cove was the precise community of NNW   Hitchcock  I totally agree  is a big
influence and elsewhere to in the Kubrick canon   but  question is   did
Kubrick himself ever acknowledge this  or indeed  any other influence -- for
instance  note in EWS that Blume in Love is playing on the couple's TV set at
the beginning of the film  and Mazurski himself has been preoccupied greatly
with fidelity/infidelity in marriage
