Alfred Hitchcock

Alfred Hitchcock is a British film director and film producer. He was born August 13, 1899 in Leytonstone, a suburb of London. He specializes in thriller movies and is known around the world as the master of suspense.

The first famous movie is Rebecca. This movie is an American psychological thriller movie based on Daphne du Maurier's "Rebecca". It was released in America on March 22, 1940, and in Japan on April 7, 1951. At the 13th Academy Awards, the film won an Academy Award for Best Cinematography and the Best Cinematography Award in the black and white category. The second famous movie is Rear Window. This movie is an American suspense movie based on the novel of the same name by William Irish. It was released in America on August 1, 1954, and in Japan on January 14, 1955. The film didn't win an Academy Award, but has been nominated for Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Cinematography, and Best Recording.

My favorite Hitchcock movie is Psycho. This movie is an American psycho-thriller suspense movie based on the novel of the same name by Robert Bloch. It was released in America on June 16, 1960, and in Japan on September 4, 1960. The main actors are Anthony Perkins, Janet Leigh, Vera Miles and John Gavin. Janet Lee won the 18th Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress, and the scriptwriter Joseph Stefano won the Edgar Award for Best Film Screenplay in 1961. The box office revenue was 50 million yen.

Marion, who works for a real estate company, is asked to carry 40 thousand dollars in cash paid by a customer to the bank, but steals it and runs away. Then she stays at the Bates Motel which she found on the road at night when it was raining heavily. While her meal is over and Marion is taking a shower, someone kills her with a knife. It's a story that makes me wonder why she was killed and who the culprit was. And what happens to those who are looking for her is also a highlight.

Not only is this movie scary, but it's also a suspense movie, it's fun to make inferences, and when I notice it, I've entered the movie world. It was so interesting that I could finish watching it in no time. I was also impressed by how scary the images of the casual moments were, depending on how they were shot and the sound. Also, I think that is a good point because it is a black and white movie that is not so common in modern times. Since there are no horror elements such as ghosts, I think it is a relatively easy-to-see work even for people who are not good at horror movies. If you like horror movies and watch Psycho, you'll definitely be a fan of Hitchcock.
