Alfred Hitchcock was a man with vivid imagination, strong creative skills and a passion for life.

With his unique style and God-gifted wit he produced and directed some of the most thrilling

films that had the audience almost swooning with fright and falling off their seats with laughter.

Alfred Hitchcock was greatly influenced by American films and magazines. At the age of 20, he

took up a job at the office of Paramount Studio, London. Using imagination, talent and

dedication, he made each of his endeavours a success.

He took great pleasure in working in the studio and often worked all seven days a week. He

moved to the USA in 1939 and got his American citizenship in 1955. Here, he produced many

more films and hosted a weekly television show.
