It's interesting to think of his cameo appearances as a single character, who goes about his life having no idea of the bizarre situations that unfold around him.
I love it! Of course that makes all those movies part of a unified Alfred Hitchcock Universe, which could have other side effects...like why so many people in it look like Cary Grant.
He first appeared as an extra in his own movie because there weren't enough extras hired, then began to cameo regularly when he learned that audiences were having fun trying to spot him
@Randy White No, he didn't, unfortunately . Hitchcock was nominated for Best Director but lost. Rebecca did win the Best Picture Oscar and the movie's producer ,David O. Selznick received it not Sir Hitchcock.
Ian Turner yeah both ypes are great, but with Stan Lee there is in my opinion that he steals to much from the frame and gets an talking role where the attention is put on him. While with Hitchcock it is very subtle and you get people watching curse themselves for missing his cameo again.
In the beginning, Hitch needed to save money on hiring extras so he cast himself instead, and people began to notice him, so later, even when he could afford hiring more people, he would continue appearing in his own films. He has stated that he prefers his cameos to be as early as possible so the audience could spot him and then focus on the movie.
I was fortunate enough to see the 40th Anniversary release of Vertigo back in 1998 at the Ziegfeld Theater in NYC. It was presented in 70mm and DTS 6 Channel Digital sound. It was a restoration of a Vista Vision print so it looked nothing short of fabulous. It was a clear reminder of Television's influence on filmmaking at that time, to show moviegoers exactly what they were not able to get from TV.
3:12 Dave Seville and Alfred Hitchcock in the same room has to be the most notible crossover in Motion picture history that most people don't know about.
I love the Notorious Cameo. The main characters are very concerned that the guests are going through the wine too quickly. Who is drinking so much wine? Alfred Hitchcock of course!
You missed one. In Rear Window you can also see Hitchcock on the street between the buildings when Raymond Burr's character comes back or leaves later on.
I love Hitchcock movies and always look out for his cameo appearance, thanks to this I now know where he is in each film as I have missed him in a few of them, he was brilliant as a director and chose the best actors to appear for him.
what a joy. absolutely terrific. the only video of this kind, pointing out incidental details, which is worth every second of viewing. not surprised if this winds up in a film museum. absolutely classic. thank you so much.
I know his appearance doesn’t effect the story, but I always thought it was fun to think that he’s connected to all these stories and he’s just there to make sure it all goes as planned.
A fascinating man with a keen sense of humor. I understand that his appearance in his own movies is no big deal, but none the less I think it was pure genius with a huge touch of creativity. When I was told of this as a kid, I always paid special attention to trying to spot him. Still do 😀
Love this. I’m a Huge Hitchcock fan. My mailman’s son, Evan hunter, wrote the screenplay for the birds. However, when Hitchcock asked him to write the screenplay for marnie, hunter refused because of the rape seen.
Mr Hitchcock has alway been one of my favorite Directors. And I always loved watching one of his movies for the first time just to find him in the beginning of the film. Great Director!....
This was wonderful. More often than not I couldn't find him, especially in Psycho. In Rear Window I really thought I saw him on the sidewalk walking between the two buildings, thank you for clearing that up. I so appreciate this video. Out of all his movies Frenzy frightened me most.
He's so talented and remarkable with a featuring sight that everyone would like to remember. All his films are packed with educational link so that one could create for any purpose though.
I think Brooks missed an opportunity. Since High Anxiety was a homage to Hitchcock, Brooks should have made a series of cameos rather than star in it himself.
@@MFPhoto1 Totally agree. It should have starred Gene Wilder as Dr. Thorndyke. It's no coincidence that the 3 films they collaborated on are not only Brooks' best, but Wilder's best as well.
FYI: Hitchcock DID have the opportunity for a cameo in High Anxiety. Mel Brooks offered it to him, but Hitch politely declined, explaining that he only appears in his own movies. I don't think he was being a snob - it's just that Hitchcock was very much the traditionalist, he had a tendency to follow certain established paths; and only appearing in his films was one of them. That said, Hitchcock was absolutely delighted with High Anxiety, according to Brooks. I saw Mel on a talk show several years after the film debuted, and he said that Hitchcock really enjoyed the irrevency, because so many people had a tendency to treat him very seriously, due to his reputation. Also, I agree that it would have been great if Hitchcock had agreed to a cameo. The way I see it, Mel could have sat Hitch next to him on the bench during "The Birds" scene, and they BOTH would gotten bombarded with bird shit!
Some of the clips were so quick that I would've gotten too frustrated. Also, some of them were just so dark and fuzzy. Maybe it was my tablet that is to blame for the quality.
Me alegro de enterarme por fin y saber después de tanto tiempo indagando y preguntando sin resultado, dónde sale Alfred Hitchcock en Rebeca. La he visto unas 17 veces y nunca conseguí localizarlo. Gracias. Pero estaba difícil...
I think this is the clearer cameo (Hitch had a clear gait to his walk, even from a distance) than the second one in red neon flashing out the window later in the film.
Epic! "Dial M for murder" is my favorite one. Hes just another guest sitting at the table, not standing out in any way.....Very chilling.....Of course.......
I have most of his movies...I easily recognized him in North by Northwest, To Catch A Thief, Rear Window, The Man Who Knew Too Much, Spellbound, Notorious and Birds...
Apologies in advance for my misspelling of 'Suspense' and 'Thief'.
No worries. It's understandable
Never! I can never forgive such a thing!
instaBlaster
after 8 years its not in advance anymore i thinnk

Wow. This.
@@goodmaro Why so many people look like James Stewart.
@@gabriell861 why so many women look like Grace Kelly. She's pretty unique
@@goodmaro why are there so many wrong mans ?!
He first appeared as an extra in his own movie because there weren't enough extras hired, then began to cameo regularly when he learned that audiences were having fun trying to spot him
It was certainly easy for the director to place himself in his own film! :)
It’s like Sta Lee!
By far the cleverest was the newspaper from Lifeboat, sheer brilliance.
I like the last one best, actually.
Of all his movies the birds was a classic
And Dial M For Murder.
@@garyl7735 . And the one when the baby pissed off on his trousers.
Topaz also
*Sir Alfred Hitchcock never getting an Oscar is the biggest travesty in the movie industry.*
@Mary Soundgarden Kubrick not getting one is also a massive injustice too.
@Randy White No, he didn't, unfortunately . Hitchcock was nominated for Best Director but lost. Rebecca did win the Best Picture Oscar and the movie's producer ,David O. Selznick received it not Sir Hitchcock.
Yeah.
Glenn Hoddle, the list of Oscar injustices is very long. Fellini, Welles, Chaplin, Peckinpah, Howard Hawks, Kurosawa, Altman... Just to name a few.
@Mary Soundgarden technically Stanley Kubrick did win an oscar for best visual effects but that was it.
Love the north by northwest cameo! It's funny how he reacts to missing the bus & that his name is right there with his cameo.
And moving left to right at the same speed. Brilliant.
He even made a cameo at his funeral. GENIUS!!
Bruh
What do you mean by that?
Alfred Hitchcock, now there's a director. Praised for his early to his last film.
Though it was late praise. He wasn't highly regarded until the 60s.
@@miks48 oh well before the 60's. He really started to make a name of his own when he flee to America, so around the 40's
1:54 - Gotta credit his sense of humor on that one.
Love Alfred Hitchcock cameos.
Ian Turner yeah both ypes are great, but with Stan Lee there is in my opinion that he steals to much from the frame and gets an talking role where the attention is put on him. While with Hitchcock it is very subtle and you get people watching curse themselves for missing his cameo again.
Very good, Alfred! Too bad the Academy overlooked you for a best supporting actor Oscar for each of these films. You were robbed!
Especially for lifeboat what a role noone could copy that
They overlooked him for best director award!
Don't delete it off here! Lot of time and trouble has gone into this, excellent
Great video! In his later films, he usually appeared during the very first minutes, so the audience could concentrate on the movie after that.
Stan Lee: My cameos are the most important ones in cinema’s history
Alfred Hitchcock: Hold my knife...
They’re both legendary
@@Howlingburd19 agreed

4:31 - Hitchcock is the closest person to the camera while the Alfred Hitchcock Presents theme plays in the background.
MASTER OF SUBTLETY!!!!!!

Imagine Alfred Hitchcock & Stan Lee making a cameo in the same scene, wouldn’t that be legendary!
You missed one.
In Rear Window you can also see Hitchcock on the street between the buildings when Raymond Burr's character comes back or leaves later on.
Was in the piano players apartment .
Yes samurai you are quite right
You got to give it to the man, he was resourceful in a hilarious way.
before Stan Lee, Alfred Hitchcock was way ahead of its time
Usually, when Hitchcock thought he'd be directing a masterpiece, he would appear early so that people could focus on the film more.
I love Hitchcock movies and always look out for his cameo appearance, thanks to this I now know where he is in each film as I have missed him in a few of them, he was brilliant as a director and chose the best actors to appear for him.
Loved him with his Sealyham terriers exiting the pet shop in “The Birds”.

Tomorrow is my exam
Why the hell I'm watching Alfred Hitchcock cameos?..
🤔🤔🤣🤣🤣
because you can
Also how did you do on the exams?
@@janetgray2184 Pretty Good.
Love this. I’m a Huge Hitchcock fan. My mailman’s son, Evan hunter, wrote the screenplay for the birds. However, when Hitchcock asked him to write the screenplay for marnie, hunter refused because of the rape seen.
Wow he his the master of cameos
So clever to think of it-cheeky trademark!
Ian Turner Nah Stan Lee is pretty shitty
Brandon Samano He just died, unlucky you to curse on him.
Yes he was but don't for get that Stan Lee did cameos too. Big difference is Hitch did not talk, and Stan did.
@@timothyball742 copied shameful
What a legacy... he made movies from 20’s to 70’s... by far my best director...
So many great films - he was a genius.
Mr Hitchcock has alway been one of my favorite Directors. And I always loved watching one of his movies for the first time just to find him in the beginning of the film. Great Director!....
I must admit, My favorite is at 1:55, when he's in the newspaper ad!
Before and after photos for "Reduco" diet.
Well done! Fascinating
record of Hitchcock's
unique way of thinking.
This was wonderful. More often than not I couldn't find him, especially in Psycho. In Rear Window I really thought I saw him on the sidewalk walking between the two buildings, thank you for clearing that up. I so appreciate this video. Out of all his movies Frenzy frightened me most.
Sir Alfred Hitchcock, really is The Master of Suspence! Thanks a lot for this Video!
By far the GREATEST director of ALL TIME.
No.
Thanks for your opinion luv, but I have to disagree. I think that honour goes to the genius Brian De Palmer.
Alfred Hitchcock had cameos since the 20th century and now comic book writer Stan lee also did cameos in the marvel movies and cartoons.
Lifeboat, the most famous and classic one
Thank you for posting this great montage!!!🎥
What fun! Thank you for this treat!
Thank you I’ve been wanting to see them all for years
He's so talented and remarkable with a featuring sight that everyone would like to remember. All his films are packed with educational link so that one could create for any purpose though.
Best film of Hitchcock's cameos ever! Please don't ever delete it :-)
Oh goodness I've seen Notorious at least a half dozen times and I never caught that cameo!! Very well put together video. Thank you for posting.
About time to watch all of Hitchcock classic motion pictures.
Thanks for putting it together.
Definitely a must-see for those who are aficionados of The Master of Suspense himself.
The king of cameo, and not only.
Thanks for sharing
Excellent work, some easier than others. What a career just about a movie a year.
Alfred Hitchcock was the original Watcher Informant.
As a former bus driver I can relate to that one 4:11, and yes I did drive off☺.
Saw him once at the airport in NYC waiting for a Pan Am plane.
Pan Am? They're deader than Hitchcock is....
@@michaelkaminski8339 His films are not dead. They are still watched.
@@michaelkaminski8339 oof
Great work! Thanks for keeping the video here.
I like how all of them were subtle, and then you get "This is Alfred Hitchcock speaking"
Thank you for posting
I wish he had made a cameo in High Anxiety. He was an uncredited consultant on that film, according to Mel Brooks.
I think Brooks missed an opportunity. Since High Anxiety was a homage to Hitchcock, Brooks should have made a series of cameos rather than star in it himself.

many thanks for that mission impossible.really awesome job and great effort
The trolleybus model from "North by Nothwest" is a Pullman Standard. Some of these are still running in Valparaíso, Chile.
Nice compilation.
My Hitchcock loving friend recently found one in Foreign Correspondent and it was confirmed by others who are expert on the topic.
The best character of all his movies
Morgan! Fabulous assembly. Some are quite subtle. Nice catch.
Thank you so much! Everyone who is interested in the history of the cinema must see this video!!
I love him
Excellent ! Thank you !
I like how you could spot him, because he had a prop. Walking 2 dogs. Carrying a bag with a musical instrument. Cello, etc...
ヒッチコックのカメオは何回見ても楽しい。
a very keen eye mr.morgan. thank you, i could not always pick out mr. hitchcock in some of his movies.
Genious, Icon, Leyend, one of the most talented directors.
Great work! Please keep it.
Awesome!!!!! Thanks for not deleting this, I luv it! :)
Me encantaba ver una pelicula suya y estar atenta a ver si encontraba su cameo, ahora veo que se me habia escapado mas de uno!
Yes.
You really put in quite an effort to produce this, thanks!!! He TRULY is the master of suspense.
I missed a few because of poor quality or the clips were so short I didn't have time to focus.
Some of the clips were so quick that I would've gotten too frustrated. Also, some of them were just so dark and fuzzy. Maybe it was my tablet that is to blame for the quality.
Did anyone notice in the 'to catch a thief' cameo cary grant is sitting next to the exact same love birds in a bird cage used in The Birds in 1963
I always look for his cameos.it's good to finally see the one in rebecca,as i never noticed it before
From the 40s, he was more in the picture and noticeable, by showing his face, than he was in the beginning.
Everyone loves Alfred Hitchcock
Me alegro de enterarme por fin y saber después de tanto tiempo indagando y preguntando sin resultado, dónde sale Alfred Hitchcock en Rebeca. La he visto unas 17 veces y nunca conseguí localizarlo. Gracias. Pero estaba difícil...
This was great. I missed him walking in ROPE. Thanks for posting
I think this is the clearer cameo (Hitch had a clear gait to his walk, even from a distance) than the second one in red neon flashing out the window later in the film.
The last one (Family Plot) is iconic. The Newspaper (before/after) hilarious 😂
Marvel fans: Stan Lee was so iconic being the first person to appear as cameos in so many movies.
Alfred Hitchcock: hold my suspense...
Epic! "Dial M for murder" is my favorite one. Hes just another guest sitting at the table, not standing out in any way.....Very chilling.....Of course.......
I love the line, too: "Here you are, sitting with the biggest cigar in the business."
Had to see the Rope shot about a half-dozen times...but Hitch is indeed in it, at about 10 o'clock...
I had heard Mr. Hitchcock took background roles in each picture he directed and this goes to prove that there is no such thing as a small part.
A genius.
Merci 🙂 bonne idée d avoir réuni toutes les apparitions de Hitchcock ici 👍
Lol, The Lady Vanishes, shrugging his shoulders up and down as he walks past. What a card.
Brilliant idea on his part , but then again , it really was just one of many.
thank-you, I like his movies but now I can see the ones I missed seeing him.
Fantastic. Awesome. Thanks bunches.
I love it .. don't remove it
Missed a few; but this is good. Don't delete!
Watching Vertigo and noticed him. Had to make sure!
Well known for the cameo appearances.
I have most of his movies...I easily recognized him in North by Northwest, To Catch A Thief, Rear Window, The Man Who Knew Too Much, Spellbound, Notorious and Birds...
FUN . Thank you for posting
