Alfred Hitchcock interview (part 6 of 6) Tomorrow Show with Tom Snyder Fall 1973.

This segment deals with Alfred Hitchcock's battle of the bulge, his own legacy, what he REALLY thinks of actors (i.e. "cattle"), and final words of "reassurance" - ewwww.

  • A genius. There will never be another filmmaker like Hitch. Many thanks for putting these up.

  • Hitchcock's disdain for actors was an act, much like Jack Benny's stinginess. But I do think there was a little truth in it, not so much for acting as a profession, but in regards to stars that had placed themselves high on a pedestal with big demands, big tantrums, and big salaries. He was trying to neutralize their egos a bit.

  • Thank you for posting this. I'm Italian, and I had a chance at last to enjoy such a wonderful story teller, in movies and in life. Fascinating (and luckily he speaks an understandable English). I'm sorry it came to end so quickly. Thank you again.

  • How bizarre, Mr. Hitchcock, by the end of part 5 of 6, I was reading up on Leprosy, on wikipedia to find out if it were contagious. All these years later, and you're still one step ahead of us. Haunting.

  • Thanks for these videos :)

  • @Gnillob802 I totally agree with you

  • 0:17. Glorious.

  • @lavista2013 Spielberg has lost the plot

  • I could listen to Hitchcock talk for hours. I love the fact that directors such as Christopher Nolan reference him as being one of their main influences. I watched 'North by North West' and 'The Birds' earlier, having never seen a Hitchcock film before, and was totally amazed. It's fantastic that so many years on, his work has still stood the test of time.

  • He transformed silent films into contemporary movies and became one of the most prolific architects of cinematic storytelling.

    All who followed Hitch stands on his shoulders, no matter how successful.

    it's like without Abbott and Costello, there would be no Jerry Seinfeld. Without Picasso and Dali, no Warol - and without Hitchcock, there would certainly be no Spielberg.

  • @krane121 heheeh Hitch the man!

  • Snyder: "All directors are actors."

    Hitch: "What?"

    hilarious
