Hitchcock had many signatures in his films.

A good deal of his films feature a male lead who was either framed or just in the wrong place at the wrong time, and essentially become the wrong man on the run. These plots would force him to run after the leads which put him in the predicament in the first place, often times having to reassert his identity. These stories would often lead to suspenseful climaxes either at or on top of famous national landmarks. North By Northwest and Saboteur are excellent examples, and even The Wrong Man exemplifies this convention in its title.

His films were almost always of the first person perspective and exemplified his yearning to place the audience as the voyeur.

A cool, elegant blonde was a typical female lead that would become a romantic interest for the male.

If a landmark is not a key part of the film, some sort of audible cue is. The 39 Steps and both versions of The Man Who Knew Too Much had a central audible cue involved.

Of course, many of these intriguing narratives were fueled by international spy anxieties, augmented by the Cold War.

Hitchcock would also litter his films with black humor, or gags which are of morbid taste.

Motherhood is also a theme in his films, Psycho of course features the most twisted version of this signature theme.

Lastly, Hitchcock made a cameo appearance in nearly all of his films. Sometimes these appearances were easy to spot and others more difficult. Late in his career, he put these cameos earlier in the film to not distract his audience.

The quote is generally attributed to Woody Allen.

The closest attributable quote is "Showing up is eighty percent of life" which appeared in the New York Times on August 21, 1977, and was attributed to Woody Allen (see Related Links, and thanks to Fred Shapiro for the detective work on this).

A quick web search shows many ways the quote has been changed over the years, including changing:

• 80% to 90%
• life to success or winning
• The order, to put the number first

So a common version now is "90% of success is just showing up."

The line has been attributed to Annie Hall, but this appears to be incorrect.

Woody Allen [b. December 1, 1935] and Woody Harrelson [b. July 23, 1961] are movie stars with the first name of 'Woody'. Allen is a movie star who's best known for his screenwriting and directing talents. But he consistently draws upon his considerable experience as a stage and film actor. He's the recipient of three Academy Awards. But he also is the record breaking recipient of 21 nominations: one for acting, 6 for directing, and 14 for screenwriting.

Woody Harrelson has a solid reputation as the bartender in the television series 'Cheers', which is always in demand for reruns. He has an equally solid reputation in films. That reputation is reflected in his Academy Award nomination as Best Supporting Actor in 'The Messenger', in 2009.
