Good
evening ladies and gentlemen. My name is Alfred Hitchcock. The film you are
about to see is based on actual events in my life.
‘What?’ I
hear you say. ‘Hitch, as the leading
man?’
Yes!
I was due a part after so many cameo appearances. You will also be introduced
to a new leading lady - Alma Reville. She will, quite literally, take your
breath away. She hasn’t a blonde hair on her head!
Surprised,
are we? Choking on your popcorn? The master of suspense . . . losing his touch?
We seem to have some film buffs in the audience. When you have made as many
films as I have, it can sometimes be frightfully delicious to break the rules
and confound all expectations.
I
haven’t seen the film yet, but I’m sure I’ll follow most of the action. After
all, I played the role quite superbly many years ago.
There
will, of course, be a MacGuffin. I
won’t spoil your pleasure by revealing it.
By
the way, if you happen to be sitting next to a pain in the asterix, be careful
not to annoy them too much. They may have murder on their mind.
Enjoy!
