“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 really relate to outsider characters. Especially the eccentric, lunatic weirdos like Alfred Hitchcock, Viktor Navorski in The Terminal, or the Anvil guys. Everything I've done is about these quite eccentric, exotic outsiders who you might see in a certain light at first, but once you scratch the surface a little, you realize that they're not that different from you. I think there's an element of that which unites.” ThinkingDifferentDoneCharacterGuyRealizingOutsidersLunaticWeirdo Author:Sacha Gervasi
“I think it's impossible to get any movie made, let alone a character story. Even with big stars, which we had, there were challenges. But we got through it, and we're really happy that we made the movie. It's easier to make giant robot movies, but I'm not in that game.” ThinkingCharacterChallengesImpossibleReally Happy Author:Sacha Gervasi
“I think everyone who saw Alfred Hitchcock Psycho movie, as I did when I was young, was impacted. The shower scene is nuts. It still is, and I think what's wonderful about it is that it's universal. People understand the darkness and the violence, and it's shocking.” PeopleThinkingDarknessViolenceWonderfulScenePsycho 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
“I think Alma Reville was the only one Alfred Hitchcock trusted. When it came to issues of taste or what the audience wanted, down to editing, script and casting, he would turn to her first. She was his partner.” ThinkingAudienceTrusted Author:Sacha Gervasi
