Alfred Hitchcock

Alfred Hitchcock was a British film director and producer. He pioneered many techniques in the suspense and psychological thriller genres. After a successful career in British cinema in both silent films and early talkies, Hitchcock moved to Hollywood. He fashioned himself a distinctive and recognisable directorial style and also pioneered the use of a camera made to move in a way that mimics a person's gaze.

Alfred Hitchcock was the 'Master of suspense where films came to be the benchmark for 'psychological' thrillers'.

Listed below are a few quotes from Alfred Hitchcock:

"The only way to get rid of my fears is to make films about them."
"There is no terror in the bang, only in the anticipation of it."
"If it's a good movie, the sound could go off and the audience would still have a perfectly clear idea of what was going on."
"Always make the audience suffer as much as possible."
"I am a typed director. If I made Cinderella, the audience would immediately be looking for a body in the coach."
