Alfred Hitchcock
Sir Alfred Hitchcock was born in Leytonstone in London on August 13th 1899. He was the youngest of his siblings, being the second son and the third child of William Hitchcock and Emma Jane Hitchcock who brought him into the world. Little did they know that he would one day become one of the greatest directors of film ever to have graced Hollywood.
At the age of 5 he supposedly turned up at the local police station with a note from his father asking for Hitchcock to be locked away for 5 minutes due to being badly behaved. This filled him with fear of the police for the rest of his days. This wrongful accusation, among others, would later have an impact on him as shown in his films when many characters faced punishments due to false accusations.
When Hitchcock was just 15 years of age, his father passed away as a result of a kidney disease. For this reason, Hitchcock's mother was a huge influence in his films, which is why there is a dominant female figure in many of his films and a father figure is never included in his films. He made many top films that gained him a lot admirers such as "Psycho", "The Birds", and "North By Northwest". These were three of his biggest and most successful films ever and also three very action-packed films.
