This still captures Hitchcock's auteur style really well. Hitchcock was a bit of an unusual auteur who liked young, blonde woman and in this you can see he victimizes Marion by having her stabbed to death whilst naked in the shower. This conforms to the stereotype of ditsy blonde females being a victim. In a lot of films, the stereotypical female victim is shown to have a sexual side (by having sexual relations with another character or acting in a provocative way). Hitchcock had Marion murdered whilst naked which backs up this stereotype.
