Alfred Hitchcock in a vintage postcard promoting his 1963 film "The Birds."
Because of his television show (1955-1965), he became at least as famous as the stars of his movies.
Most fans of classic films love Alfred Hitchcock, and I am certainly among them. I do think he's a tad too corny at times. But I suppose corny can be a relief from the really scary things he does to us. The movie "Psycho," for example, is one of my favorite films. I don't want to like it: but each time it is on television, I can't seem to look away.
