More quotes by Alfred Hitchcock
This award is meaningful because it comes from my fellow dealers in celluloid.
Alfred Hitchcock
In the old days villains had moustaches and kicked the dog. Audiences are smarter today. They don't want their villain to be thrown at them with green limelight on his face. They want an ordinary human being with failings.
Alfred Hitchcock
I was an uncommonly unattractive young man.
Alfred Hitchcock
I would almost say that the best screen actor is the man who can do nothing extremely well.
Alfred Hitchcock
Seeing a murder on television can help us unload the feelings of hate themselves. If you do not have feelings of hatred, may be obtained in the advertising interval.
Alfred Hitchcock
I’ve never been very keen on women who hang their sex round their neck like baubles. I think it should be discovered. It’s more interesting to discover the sex in a woman than it is to have it thrown at you, like a Marilyn Monroe or those types. To me they are rather vulgar and obvious.
Alfred Hitchcock
This weapon [an ax] is primitive but effective. And it's also guaranteed to be fifty-percent painless. You see, it takes two people to operate, and the person at this end [the handle] doesn't feel a thing.
Alfred Hitchcock
Someone once told me that every minute a murder occurs, so I don't want to waste your time, I know you want to go back to work.
Alfred Hitchcock
I'm frightened of eggs, worse than frightened, they revolt me.
Alfred Hitchcock
The Birds could be the most terrifying motion picture I have ever made.
Alfred Hitchcock
There is nothing to winning, really. That is, if you happen to be blessed with a keen eye, an agile mind, and no scruples whatsoever.
Alfred Hitchcock
When an actor comes to me and wants to discuss his character, I say, 'It's in the script.' If he says, 'But what's my motivation?, ' I say, 'Your salary.'
Alfred Hitchcock
The length of a film should be directly related to the endurance of the human bladder.
Alfred Hitchcock
We seem to have a compulsion these days to bury time capsules in order to give those people living in the next century or so some idea of what we are like.
Alfred Hitchcock
To me Psycho was a big comedy. Had to be.
Alfred Hitchcock
Drama is real life with all the boring parts cut out.
Alfred Hitchcock
A woman of mystery is one who also has a certain maturity and whose actions speak louder than words. Any woman can be one, if she keeps those two points in mind. She should grow up-and shut up.
Alfred Hitchcock
Disney has the best casting. If he doesn't like an actor he just tears him up.
Alfred Hitchcock
Drama is life with the dull bits cut out.
Alfred Hitchcock
The silent pictures were the purest form of cinema
