Ivor Novello, Hitchcock directed the story of a young man seduced by an older woman based on a play by Ivor Novello. It was a filler, a film that his contract with the studio required.

The case of Jonathan Drew ( USA title) 
(Above) Hitchcock's first screen appearence as an extra, needing one more body to fill the screen. The momentary personal appearence later became a Hitchcock trademark, a career-long habit initially motivated by superstition and later continued as a gag. (if I have the photo I will mark as:*Cameo*) PLOT:
A suspense drama about a landlady who suspects her new tenant is Jack the Ripper, the Lodger told much of of its story in visual terms. It contained some bold special effects and introduced a theme that was to reappear in many of the director's films, that of a man accused of a crime he did not commit, an ordinary man caught in a web of extraordinary events.

PLOT:
Effervescent is the right word for this film, with surreal scenes and bubbling interpretation. Particularly good was Betty Balfour.

(these are the only infos I have about it) Elstree Calling (1930) The second and last of Hitchcock co-directions after 1926.
His co-directors were Andre Charlot, Jack Hulbert and Paul Murray. The four worked under the supervision of Adrian Brunet. This was already a talking movie, shot after Hitchcock had directed "Blackmail" |
