Nope, but one of my relatives was... on the legal side of
the biz. I had a lot of visits to the 20th Century lot, passes
to see the dailies, and a bunch of previewing of new releases.
I met Hitchcock at an appreciation dinner for him that the
Directors Guild (I believe) put on.

Hey, I met Hitchcock, most of the cast of the TV Mash, George
Peppard, Shirley Jones, and I was Sean Cassidy's camp consellor.
I hate to admit it, but I also met Angie Dickinson and Burt, when
I lived in So. Cal. Hitch was the most interesting. We shook hands,
and he said, "Pleased to meet you," in his typical elongated speech.
He was quite senile at the time, but he did manage to remember my
name when we met again after the showing of his movie Rear Window.
He gave a little speech to introduce it, but they had to escort him off
the stage, as he was starting to ramble.

sat next to him as we watched his daughter in a play. Thanks for the
reminder of a great man and a great memory!!

your
autograph???? I(I stood in back of Charton Heston at the drugstore and

rushed outside to watch him zoom off in a yellow Corvette...I was 16
at
the
time...)

Let me guess, shortly before Psycho came out, right?

Thanks Katy,
It's beginning to look like some of the minor bunyippies could bloom into
reasonably intelligent posters. It's only the top dog(s) who still can't
manage much more than a "snort" response.

snort!

My theory is that his overuse of "snort" is an onomatopoeic throwback to the
root cause of his disorder.

snort!

BTW - I do appreciate his random choice of Gregory Peck in his attempt to
'humiliate' me. As you know, Scout is a character from the movie in which
Peck cemented his place as my favorite actor of all time.
Scout

snort! snort! snort!
