ALFRED HITCHCOCK: 1899-1980 Alfred Hitchcock, master of suspense, dies after illness c. 1980 N.Y. Times News Service Alfred Hitchcock, whose mastery of suspense and of directorial technique made him one of the most popular and celebrated of moviemakers, died Tuesday at the age of 80 at his home in Los Angeles. Hitchcock, ailing with arthritis and kidney failure, had been in declining health for the past year, and his condition deteriorated over the weekend. Despite his ill health, the director was reportedly at work at Universal studios on a new film, a spy story to be called “The Short Night.” With him at the time of his death were his wife, his daughter and his three grandchildren. “Some films are slices of life. Mine are slices of cake.” Thus, in a characteristically incisive remark, he summed up his approach to movie making. The celebrated director of scores of psychological thrillers for more than half a century was the master manipulator of menace and the macabre and the leading specialist in suspense and shock. In delicately balancing the commonplace and the bizarre, he was the most noted juggler of emotions in the longest major directorial career in film history. His distinctive personal style was vigorously visual, stressing imagery over dialogue, and sometimes using silence to increase apprehension. Among his most stunning montages were a harrowing attack by a bulletfiring crop-dusting plane on Cary Grant at a deserted crossroad in “North by Northwest,” a brutal shower slaying in “Psycho” and an avian assault on a sleepy village in “The Birds.” He was a household name to hundreds of millions for decades. A trademark was the fleeting, nonspeaking appearances he made in his films. As the leading British director of the 19305, he set the standard for international intrigue and espionage with such classic thrillers as “The 39 Steps” and “The Lady Vanishes.” After moving to Hollywood in 1939, he made such taut melodramas as “Rebecca,” “Foreign Correspondent,” “Suspicion,” “Shadow of a Doubt,” “Lifeboat,” “Spellbound,” /‘Notorious,” “Strangers on a Train,” “Rear Window” and “Vertigo.” His later shockers mirrored his increasingly pessimistic view of most people and mounting evil in the world. His films were spiced with unusual peripheral characters and often shot on location in exotic settings. His heroines were usually “cool,” classic beauties who “don’t drip sex,” he said. “You discover sex in them. ” At its best, the Hitchcock touch revealed a cornucopia of conjurer’s tricks, dextrously juxtaposing tension and relaxation, relieving horror with humor. “After a certain amount of suspense,” he told an interviewer, “the audience must find relief in laughter.” Resembling a pixieish gargoyle, the rotund director had a pudgy, basset-hound face with heavy jowls and pouting lips. He was a witty raconteur who gave sly, sardonic and eminently quotable interviews peppered with put-ons and whimsical ideas for new movies. He shaped a public image as a genially ghoulish cynic noted for barbed pronouncements about life and commercials in two popular weekly television series, “Alfred Hitchcock Presents” and the “Alfred Hitchcock Hour,” which he supervised and was host of in the late ’sos and early ’6os. Behind his somewhat fictional self-projected image was a highly skilled and dedicated artist who withstood his debunkers. Regarded as one of the shrewdest businessmen in Hollywood, he became a multimillionaire. He also gained more complete control over every aspect of his productions screenplay, casting, photography, editing, sound track and even publicity than any Hollywood director. Hitchcock, who also produced many of his later films, won the 1967 Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and “Rebecca,” his first American movie, won an Oscar as the best film of 1940. He was nominated for directorial Oscars five imes for “Rebecca,” “Lifeboat” in 1944, “Spellbound” in 1945, “Rear Window” in 1954 and “Psycho” in 1960. Alfred Joseph Hitchcock was born in London on Aug. 13,1899, to William, a poultry dealer, greengrocer and fruit importer] and the former Emma Whelan. He graduated from St. Ignatius College, a Jesuit school in London, where he studied engineering, and then took art courses at the University of London. In 1926 he married Alma Reville, his assistant, who collaborated on many of his later movies as a writer, adviser and general assistant. Their daughter, Patricia, acted in a number of his movies and television thrillers. The pictorial and technical innovations of Hitchcock’s early melodramas garnered him increasing praise. In 1929 he directed “Blackmail,” Britain’s first widely successful talking feature. In the ’3os he won international acclaim for his pacesetting spy thrillers, including “The Man Who Knew Too Much." “The 39 Steps,” “Secret Agent,” “Sabotage” (titled “The Woman Alone” in the U.S.) and “The Lady Vanishes!” David 0. Selznick lured Hitchcock to Hollywood, and he stayed on, later becoming an American citizen. His first American production, the award-winning adaptation of Daphne du Maurier’s Gothic novel “Rebecca," with Laurence Olivier and Joan Fontaine, began a long string of successes. He termed “Psycho" his first shocker. This 1960 movie, with Anthony Perkins as a split personality, depicted two murders, one the knifing of Janet Leigh in a shower. This SBOO,OOO production grossed more than sls million. “The Birds” is a superbly woven fantasy of a murderous assault by thousands of birds on Tippi Hedren, Rod Taylor and an entire California town. The director had 700 birds trained for the 1963 chiller Hitchcock was a noted practical joker whose favorite prank was telling a tantalizing story in a loud voice to a companion in an elevator, perfectly timing his exit just before the punch line and then bowing politely to the intrigued but frustrated passengers.
