Alfred Hitchcock

English "Master of Suspense" director Alfred Hitchcock
would appear in his own movies, a character with bulk!
In "Psycho," one of his best movies from long ago,
Hitchcock's cameo appearance was at the start of that show.

Andrea, indeed he was a character. Did you ever watch his TV show? He had a unique way of speaking. What a character! He and his films are still studied extensively by film students and experts today. Smiles!!

A very nice tribute to the 'Master of Suspense ... 'Psycho' is one of my favorite movies. His cameo was not so easy to spot in that one. I believe he was standing outside the office window where Marion worked... By the way, his daughter, Pat Hitchcock, played the other secretary in the office!

did you ever see that movie. It's a classic. Then Bates Motel series was made about it years later, really good. It starred the guy that plays the autisic doctor in Good Doctor.

I think you used to comment on my poetry when I was just starting out as a teenager. Your name seems very familiar to me. On a side note, who doesn't love a Hitchcock movie?!

I have always loved the movies directed by Hitchcock. I think I've seen them all. Yesterday I saw The Birds. I would agree about Psycho. Great film.

The other day I saw Marnie on Prime. I think I must have missed it all those years ago.
