Alfred Hitchcock, the undisputed master of suspense, was born on this day in 1899. Although the violence in his films may be tame by today's standards, his movies still rank as some of the scariest of all time. "The Birds" and "Rebecca" are two of my favorites. "Psycho" is listed on imdb.com as #32 of the top 250 movies as voted by viewers. I still remember being surprised to see Doris Day in "The Man Who Knew Too Much", since I was only familiar with her comedy.
“I'm a writer and, therefore, automatically a suspicious character.” - Alfred Hitchcock
The "Psycho" house
Dame Judith Anderson was deliciously evil in "Rebecca"
Still from "The Birds". Creepy just to look at!
