Alfred Hitchcock

What is drama but life with the dull bits cut out.

Television has brought back murder into the home - where it belongs.

Revenge is sweet and not fattening.

You have to have really wide reading habits and pay attention to the news and just everything that's going on in the world: you need to. If you get this right, then the writing is a piece of cake.

It's hard to imagine anyone interested in film not being a fan of Alfred Hitchcock because he's such a key influence on the entire history of cinema - it's hard to escape his shadow.

If you're not having a good time, find something else that gives you some joy in life.
