Alfred Hitchcock

 Alfred Hitchcock was a movie director in the late 1920's through the 70's. He is well known for his thrillers and suspense movies such as Psycho, The Birds, and Marnie. I think Hitchcock was a genius! Some movies are better then others, but they are all good. He could really get inside the mind of a killer or rapist, which made his movies truly special.That's why he is known as the "master of suspense."


Hitchcock directed more than 50 feature films in a career spanning six decades. My favorite movie of his was Rebecca; but there are still many films I have yet to see, (its on my to-do list). Hitchcock was nominated and won so many awards, I couldn't possibly list them all. I will mention that he did receive the American Film Institute's Life Achievement Award in  1979, just a year before he died (1980). He was originally from London and even won awards for best foreign film.

If you have never seen any of his films, YOUR MISSING OUT. Seriously, the man was very talented.
