“When you take on Hitchcock you know it's gonna provoke some sort of controversy, because there were so many people talking about the book [Stephen Rebello's Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho] and wanting it to be the film about the making of this movie [Psycho]. But that's been done. That's been done in the book, and Stephen Rebello himself was like, "I want a movie which is an entertainment for the audience." So we made the conscious decision.” PeopleKnowsWantMadeBookDoneFilmDecisionTalkingAudienceConsciousEntertainmentProvokingControversyPsychoHitchcockPeople Talking Author:Sacha Gervasi
“Of course, when you're doing something that's unexpected, people are going to have a very specific point of view about it, but I think it's all good to have a healthy debate about who Hitchcock was and what that means to people. He means a lot of different things to a lot of different people because the films are so great. If the movies were not great, no one would be bothering to show any interest.” PeopleIfsThinkingMeanDifferentShowsWould BeFilmCoursesInterestViewsHealthyPoint Of ViewDebateBotherUnexpectedDifferent ThingsDifferent PeoplesHitchcock Author:Sacha Gervasi
“I went to film school and studied Alfred Hitchcock. I knew of Alma Reville existence, but had no idea really who she was or how influential she was on him. She stayed in the shadows. Go online, and there are hardly any images or film of her. She really stayed out of the limelight on purpose. She didn't want it, and I think that's one of the reasons that she's really lost in the shadows of Hitchcock's history to a degree.” ThinkingReasonSchoolFilmPurposeExistenceShadowOnlineInfluential Author:Sacha Gervasi
