Alfred Hitchcock

Alfred Hitchcock's exact IQ is not well-documented, and there are no verified records of a formal IQ test. However, he was widely regarded as a brilliant filmmaker and master of suspense, indicating a high level of intelligence and creativity. His innovative storytelling techniques and psychological insights in his films suggest a keen intellect and understanding of human behavior.

The actor who appeared in more than 30 Alfred Hitchcock movies is the British actress and model, Tippi Hedren. Known for her roles in "The Birds" and "Marnie," Hedren's collaboration with Hitchcock was significant, but it is worth noting that her appearances were primarily centered around these two major films. However, other actors, like Cary Grant and James Stewart, frequently collaborated with Hitchcock in multiple films, though none reached the 30-mark.

You can find Alfred Hitchcock short stories online on websites like Project Gutenberg, Internet Archive, and Amazon Kindle.

Alfred Hitchcock immigrated to the United States in 1939. He moved from England to Hollywood to further his career in filmmaking. This move allowed him to create some of his most iconic films, such as "Rebecca" and "Psycho."

Lifeboat was an unpublished short story written by Steinbeck. He tried to turn it into a screenplay for Hitchcock, but they couldn't reconcile their different visions of the movie. Steinbeck asked that his name never be released in conjunction to the movie. The story can be read at the John Steinbeck research library. Alas it is not online.

Rear Window (my personal favorite) is what is known as a 'carpet or rug' movie, meaning the vast majority of the film was filmed indoors. In fact it had one basic room, Jeffery's apartment. Although I'm not an expert on movie making I have heard that carpet films are hard to pull off. Hitchcock did it brilliantly, thanks in great part to the gifted actors Jimmy Stewart, Grace Kelly and Thelma Ritter.

Hitchcock had a wicked sense of humor, and would sometimes play jokes on co-workers that were more cruel than funny. He was also famous for staying home with his wife (who, by all accounts, he adored) every night, and never socializing. He spoke openly (and sarcastically) about his disagreements with studio exec David Selznick; and, when asked if he really said, "Actors are like cattle" he corrected the quote to be, "Actors should be treated like cattle."

However, I am unaware of any reported difficulties he had with either screen-writers or actors in the making of his films.

The "Alfred Hitchcock Hour" ran for 3 seasons, and "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" ran for 7 seasons.

Alfred Hitchcock never composed any theme songs himself. However, Funeral March of a Marionette by Charles Gounod became known as Hitchcock's Theme because Hitchcock used it for his television series, Alfred Hitchcock Presents. The theme is still associated with Hitchcock today.

This is one of the few films directed by Hitchcock in which he does not make a cameo.

Rear Window, he plays a man in a wheelchair who witnesses a murder from his window.
Excellent suspense movie.

No idea, but a coincidence - his maternal grandfather was called Jack Farrell. So was mine. Definitely a different person, but my grandfather used to say that he was related to Grace Kelly. My daughter tells me that Robbie Williams once said that he was related to her too.

No, Hitchcock did not make a cameo appearance in, nor did he direct, Witness for the Prosecution. The movie was directed by Billy Wilder. You may be thinking of The Paradine Case, a different courtroom drama that was directed by Alfred Hitchcock.

Hitchcock used newspaper ink for blood in the shower scene in Psycho.

He had to start somewhere.
