alfred hitchcock

 
Alfred Hitchcock was one of the most famous directors of his day, he directed many thrillers that are still known today.  He was born August 13th 1899 and he dies 29th April 1980. He had always had a love for films and regularly attend the cinema to see what was new. Hitchcock was  known for switching things up he was known as different. Compared to other directors of his time Hitchcock changed things and did things he own way instead of 'by the book'. This made he's movies memorable and are still watched today. He was very lucky and he only got the chance to direct because one of the other director fell ill, he then finished to movie. The owners of the studio where so impressed that they decided to give him a chance to direct his own movie. After this he went on to direct more and more films and produce some of todays classic.
He's most recognised movies are 'The Birds' 'Psycho' and 'North By North West' these films are known because they are not like normal thrillers, many of them contain red herrings and the audience are never certain of what will happen next. Even when Hitchcock died he's films are still known and are still recognisable today.
