Alfred Hitchcock's cameo appearances

[famalaasshole]

Best director ever

[patcoston]

deinterlace

[rutsableich]

Last night I saw Vertigo and There he was!

[nowayout35]

2:24

The best ! :D:D:D

[juliequimik]

Great video.

Brilliant work, really.

[zbucham69]

The way he does this seems creepy enough itself.

[TheFutureLooksGrimm]

lol The newspaper one was the funniest. I never even noticed him in the movies I've seen. Great vid. You really did your homework & I like how you highlighted him.

[culayta]

The best ones I liked was Psycho, Wrong Man, Rope, North by Northwest, and The Birds.

[barneybros]

3:30 is fucking brilliant

[dannotemail]

3:30 is the best!

[01sugarplumfairy]

hahaha, this is like where's Waldo? lol

[johnnyachernar]

Check out "I Confess" and count the steps leading to Hitch's silhouette, there should be about 39 steps!

[johnnyachernar]

@SmurfAndBuffalo No, as in, 39 stairs leading up to hitch. steps is another word for stairs

[SRWB10]

Wonder what sort of movie Hitch would be making in 2011 if was still around? Bet there would have been a lot of lovely naked ladies in it cos he was always hampered by the censor!

[commradefyedka]

@SRWB10 And, apparently was a "sick puppy" (Extension English teacher told me that when when we watched Rear Window in my final year of high school). Loved phallic symbols...

[NinjaKid2002]

I don't believe the first shot from Rope. The guy doesn't have the right build and he's too tall. I had heard about the cameo before, but this is the first time I looked out for it.

[Mogr95]

great

[goth1agw1omw]

I love how in this montage it just looks like random scenes of suspense and then he just randomly walks past camera.

[ladmcski]

That was fun!

[Unlusan]

great. thank you for putting all these together. I just watched rear window. I wish I knew the cameo before watching.

[EvilAshPursuivant]

3:30

funny cameo

[Rosalie1942]

Lots of fun. Happy birthday Mr. Hitchcock

[GreenCertains]

Wow!!! XD

[Bromosexual]

DEINTERLACE

[guns4hire2000]

It's like "Where's Wally?" only better. :P

[amjPeace]

Very cool!

[JRNipper]

Very good montage, enjoyed you "pointing" him out, especially in some of the more obscure cameos like in "Rope", I could never figure out where he was in that film. Thanks for posting!

[jodanlovesyou]

i finally know where he is in psycho!!!

[tiepido]

you forgot the cameo in "spellbound"...

[findjinn]

The most talented extra of all time.

[Satnick2000]

That was great! You saved me hours of detective work!

[donstuie]

The original plan in Family Plot was for Hitch to give a wink to the camera right before the credits rolled. Would've been a perfect sendoff looking back on it.

[Bitterblue911]

Hitchcock was such a jokester! Always putting on a deadpan but I'm sure he got a good laugh out of this appearances!

[GeoMcEvan]

I think I'd cameo in all my movies

[HCShannon]

2:17 He's sharing the scene with Ross Bagdasarian, whom many of you might know better as the creator of Alvin and the Chipmunks!

[wasilaify]

LOVE! Love the music too!

[xxjonboy]

Thanks for putting this together. A lot of work involved!

[haidls]

maybe to be an acoter was him dream...

[MyPurplemoose]

He is kinda like wheres waldo but 100 times better!!

[chronicreptile]

Hes so inconspicuous, he could be a master criminal and no one would notice him!

[bonkke]

it' so funny because he's never really acting, just walks through the scene and looks weird :D

[rebachick94]

very good video. love how you include which movie it is and highlight where he is. (:

[BKsMadPlanet]

Hitchcock is the only director that comes to mind who has his own theme song. Also I LOVE the "To catch a thief" cameo, that was great!

[garfrain]

this music isn't irritating at all.......(yarth)

[ac1dman]

I don't think you *really* need to highlight Hitchcock with a big circle when there are only 2-3 people on-screen and he's clearly visible..

[kkgirl300]

Damn he made alot of movie

[ourDC888]

Wow! Thank you!

[ChiaraYog]

great video :)

[thecarrotdude]

can someone explain 1:37 to me?

[Dalek1230]

@thecarrotdude yes the film only has 10 cuts in it and is full length, so they only way he could have a cameo was to start with a shot outside the window. The Camera in the film ROPE only pans and tracks people around the apartment. The reason he was the master because despite that, you are still gripped to your seat

[daisyhinojosa23]

lmao xD 1:20

[harryoakland1]

my favorites at 2:57 - somehow i just laugh so much at that!!!

[GregorySroka]

can anyone tell me what this music is?

[J5MARLON]

@GregorySroka  a sign that you dont watch that much tv.

[thepinguins96]

3:30 XDDDD hilarious

[courtneyslut]

Amazing!

[AnimeFanatic5602]

More directors need to do this.

[TheRitchardgaleHater]

@AnimeFanatic5602 Peter Jackson did this in all the Lord Of The Rings movies.

[guaditarios]

1:20 and 2:10 the best

[physicsguy8854]

My favorite is Cary Grants glance at the passenger next to him on the train.

[hitchcock1985]

Did you know he grew up in Walthamstow, London! thats near me! cool cameos!

[heavyblow]

thanks for doing this! though i think would be better if each clip is longer and contains the original soundtrack.

[jmkeller]

That weight-loss cameo was hilarious!

[GeorgeVreelandHill]

You have to love Alfred Hitchcock.

He was amazing.

George Vreeland Hill

[TheShadowedOne1]

OMG you are the best royvanderzwaan. Thank you for putting this video up. Now I've got to see every single one of these movies myself and see if I can find them. Alfred Hitchcock will live forever! In our nightmares. LOL.

[RWRamo]

Too bad your cameo collection is a bit short. But, marvelous all the same. I had wanted a nice cameo clip to expand a conversation regarding "The Observer" from Fox's Mystery Horror SciFi FRINGE. Although not every appearance, this will do quite nicely. Thanks much. Regarding North by Northwest, wasn't there an AH cameo at the Grand Canyon restaraunt just before the glitched shooting where the kid covered his ears before the blank filled automatic was pulled from the purse?

Thanks again.

[LittleAlexO]

3:31 is the most hilarious :)

[mikeos1]

Rope is the hardest for me. I just watched it and without the help I never would have known it was Hitch walking p[ast the apartment house. Just doesn't look like him, too slim.

[purpleshamrock17]

according to Wikipedia, the little girl that he's holding in his "Torn Curtain" cameo is Julie Andrews' daughter, Emma.

[pl0xman123]

Love his cameo in Marnie. He's all "Oh hey, what're you looking at?"

[MrFeferon]

The King!

[MyV1d3os]

anybody know where i can buy his and other old classic movies on dvd? i live in los angeles.

[peresosk]

tnx a lot, hitchcock = genius

[simonheart007]

wow he made some great films

[mauijim662000]

that was wonderful

[BraunMachine05]

That was great. Alfred Hitchock is the man!!

[BraunMachine05]

That was great! Alfred Hitchcock is so cool, these were so funny especially the look on Gregory Peck's face at 2:20, then those cameos at 1:20 & 2:56 are simply classic!

[Cleon29Warrior]

@BraunMachine05 It was Cary Grant, not Gregory Peck.

[BraunMachine05]

@Cleon29Warrior my fault, i meant cary grant, thanks.

[the1andonlybigh]

Awesome!

[sutjas16]

thanks I never could find him in psycho.

[monsterboy31]

2:03

Well, that was actually kinda obvious: He's the only guy in the picture.

[xocreme]

Ahh thanks for making this! I never could find him in Shadow of a Doubt. That sneaky Hitchcock... :)

[rem2267]

Wow, this is pretty impressive! Thanks for the upload, it was great to see them in one place instead of scattershot.

[mitoer]

i do not like it ya ok

[rem2267]

@mitoer  - u r a neanderthal, ya ok.

[CamiloSanchez1979]

ohh this is awesome..

[e6d6d6yheartagram]

2:27

Peck: Not you again.

[lazybones2000]

@e6d6d6yheartagram That's Cary Grant, not Gregory Peck.

[optimist799]

How did you make that spotlight effect?

[sugarshula64]

Very, very good.

[LauraSeabrook]

Would you also consider:

[Gus Van Sant] talking to someone looking just like Alfred Hitchcock, in the beginning of the movie when Marion Crane enters the office after her lunch break. In the original version of Psycho (1960), Hitchcock had a cameo in the same scene.

?

[KayaOfAyalia]

A lot of them are really noticeable and others so hidden

[musikaAko]

Alfred hitchcock marathon , thnx for sharing.

[Pelle492]

Great collection! In "Lifeboat", Hitchkock actually planned to be a drifting body in the ocean, but instead stayed with the weight-loss-advert on the cover of he newspaper. However, in a commercial for "Frenzy", he appears drifting in the Thames. Great, great director.

[Crucifer85]

Thanks for this video! I love Hitchcock's cameo.. I never find him!

[Petyamester]

Great!

[pebblesdogname]

Saboteur didn't see him

[normharris]

Thanks for sharing! I always wondered where he was in "Psycho." My fave is where he misses the bus.

[ShermanSchrader]

Thank you so much for posting this, and the effort to put this together. Studied Hitchcock in college and it was always fun to spot his understated cameos.

[gjg304]

3:30 Best cameo is at 3:30 where he rolls up in a wheelchair then stands to shake the man's hand. Priceless.

[ClassicMovieClub]

thanks very much for this its great

[ClassicMovieClub]

I love watching his movies its like playing wheres wally! Caw u have eagle eyes for Sabatouer!

[Madjack2222]

Excelent piece of work.

[00Neven]

What about the birds? Did he showed up in that movie?

[ShermanSchrader]

Yes, walking the poodles out the door. One of my favorite cameos of his.

[Trolleymoose]

Bullshit! that was Curley of the Three Stooges....Yeah!

[InvaderPet]

@Trolleymoose Nah! It was Coleman Francis!

[mikedjmix]

1:39 i did not get that one

[nikosvault]

His logo is blinking in the background.

[OutsideNila]

HAH! Notorious is one of my very favorite movies and I've watched it at least 50 times or more .... never once spotted him, even though it's a full face closeup! Just goes to show what a great director he was.

Thanks for sharing this!

[rha101]

That's great collection. I never would have seen some of them if not for the highlighting. Nice work.

[bgdjohnny8]

How excellent - If I were a great director, I'd fit myself in there slyly too I think. The best - "Lifeboat". The whole movie limited by only 10 or so people on a boat - He's the "before" guy on a weight reduction ad in a paper. Genius. His last one in "Family Plot" was neat too - his famous profile.

[Bitterblue911]

@bgdjohnny8 Actually he was the "before" and the "after" guy in the ad! He said in an interview that he lost 100 Pounds (!) while directing Lifeboat.

[bgdjohnny8]

@Bitterblue911 That's cool - I didn't know he was both.

[DamienColletti]

Nice job and great stuff!

[ers586]

Thanks for posting this. What a kick seeing all these cameos in one viewing.

[minegritachula]

LOL! Great I loved all his movies and I did notice him here and there but did not realized he had a cameo on all his movies. Good work and thanks for sharing.

[4626761]

The first camera hog.

[JimTheMingebag]

You know you have your video on aol news lucky.

[RockytheBear]

Great work. But on the scenes where it is too far to tell, how can you be sure that it's him?

[Gennedream]

great work! You are definitely missing Blackmail, the first talky from england.. he does a funny as heck cameo where hes on a bus and a little boy is bothering him and he reprimands him!

[Freodeo]

ur fucking awesome

[FerchArthur]

This is so cool! Great work.

[wemacauley]

This is FANTASTIC to have the cameos from so many of his movies. I LOVE this clip.

[DeZerVon]

I tried to search for the one in Rope (cameo nr 2.), but it was impossible. Thank you! But I think that is one of the worst cameo´s imho.

5 stars n fav.!

[melm25]

very impressive!!

[kagosavampire]

very very interestinG! thanks!

[clarenancy]

I agree, Mpro. Most cool.

[fastfashn]

Yaay! Thanks for the video!

[MproductionsMovies]

Probably the best one out of them all. Anyone agree on that? (2:44)

[UDIETHATWAY]

That was excellent...thanks for posting.

[ABALLAM3]

Funny enough, one that is missing, "Spellbound," is possibly the one that initiated the viewer search for Hitchcock cameos in all of his films since the trailer emphasizes his cameo. If anyone wants to see his cameo in this film, put "Spellbound Trailer" in the YT search engine.

[billd66]

I wish I could show this to my parents, they were both major Hitchcock fans.

[biaamol]

1:20 is soooo funny! hahah

thank you for posting this video. amazing!!

[missstylista]

yes haha!

[dottoreguzmanrulz]

excellent work

Congratulations

I had missed some of those cameos the first time around

[TheWillsy]

Very good

[GEVMM]

Sign my petiton to stop Universal Pictures from remaking The Birds!

The link is on my profile.

[ihcnol]

1:20 best cameo

[dollsandmagic]

Hitch is just The Best! Love him too! If You haven't read Rebecca...That is one of my Favorite books too. The Birds is my Fav, but I pretty much love anything with critters eating people.

[dudemanman252]

what song is this?

[Kryuj]

@dudemanman252

Funeral March of a Marionette - Charles Gounod -

[dudemanman252]

he likes to walk doesnt he

[youvebeenthunderstru]

LOL, I love how Hitchcock cameos in a weight loss advertisement.

[JeffZHigs1]

1:38 what? That was from the movie rope. They were in a tall biulding. Why would he be in the room behind her shoulder?

[dseanmat]

The idea (I have read) was to have a neon outline of the director in a sign outside the window. There is, shall we say, a shadow of a doubt about whether this is actually what was intended.

[tarwagne]

charade?

[ralphus44]

Charade wasn't Hitchock, although it's "Hitchcockian". It was directed by Stanley Donen.

[ltvunh]

58 movies and 2 lost or unfinished ;-)

[Wand2Fishes]

How many movies has he made?

[RinceBox]

Was watching Vertigo on TV today and thought I spotted Hitchcock but wasn't sure - came on here to check and got them all. Well done you.

[commissarusa]

I would guess that you're pretty good at "Where's Waldo?"

[Boogieboy138]

has anybody else seen it on psycho 2? where they go into the dark room and you just see the shadow against the wall until they turn on the lights?

[MCRrox1996]

helll yeah but after doing some math it turns out hitcock was dead 3 years when the movie came out so maybe its kinda like a tribute?

[willietheape]

The best compilation especially with the film titles and highlights of Hitch included.

[tundradog]

pretty cool,thanks for all your hard research!

[Fragile0Still]

Kurosawa, Hitchcock, Kubrick ... ah just planning my day. Thanks for the post. It's nice to see his cameos collected. I missed nearly all of them in the films. LOL.

[kafkazepam]

I've just been watching loads of Hitchcock's movies recently - of course I didn't see all the cameo appearances, but I remember the scenes - it's fun.

[miodwitnir]

Thanks for this great collection of cameos! I think the weight reduction ad is my favorite :)

[Zeelack]

just watched the birds then, saw his cameo as soon as we started rewatching it :)

[thomas2909]

thanks. just watched vertigo yesterday. what a great director he was. and i missed his cameo.

[reddy887]

Thanks a lot! Great! I don't know the music. I am not a Hitchcock fan: what is this music ? WHo is its author?

Thanks

[royvanderzwaan]

The music is from the Alfred Hitchcock Presents series. It's by Charles Gounod and it's called Funeral March of a Marionette.

[reddy887]

Thanks again ;)

[fordlandau]

great montage..thanks..I'm a Hitch fan and I had missed some of these!

[zappazoey]

lol! he kinda reminds me of Gman from Half-Life!

[Simzangel]

Great collection of clips and well put together. I was wondering if anyone thinks the shadow walking past the lit window of Norman's house in Psycho when Marion just arrives at the motel in the rain is Hitchcock's silhouette?

[donprimo21]

XDXD  de lujo

[brownieman101]

he made a ton of movies

[arisztidoltz]

Wow thanks, I've never noticed him in The 39 Steps before! Thanx

[shlbegirl]

Where's Psycho? :(

[royvanderzwaan]

At 3:01 ;)

[salgreco]

Thanks so much for putting this together and providing it.

I was just telling a friend that I wish someone had done this, and, here it is!

Thanks again.
