  • I once saw Mel Brooks talk about when Hitch invited him to dinner. He and Mel went to a very fancy restaurant and Hitch ordered them a very expensive dinner. They ate the first two courses in silence and before the entree came, Hitch stared at Mel for a time before saying in his classic deadpan voice "I saw "The Producers"... that the funniest god damn thing I've ever seen."

I love learning about new people that I have never heard of before, but it's always awesome to hear people talking about what you already know and love. Plus, I'm excited to see if I learn anything new from this video. Keep up the great work guys.

  • I'm in my final year of college right now. As an elective, I took a film studies class that was also all Hitchcock. My professor, Dr. Jack Sullivan, is such a fan that he wrote and published a textbook that we were required to have for class. It's called "Hitchcock’s Music" and I'm sure you can guess from the title what it's about. He even met a few actors who worked with Hitchcock, including the late Farley Granger from "Strangers on a Train".

He's definitely done enough that he's not only earned the spot, but we already refer to him on these channels as the fact fiend/goblin. He has the nickname, he's been hosting for months. I vote we swear him in as the Fact Boi replacement.

  • Regarding this at 9:13 "there were no unions back then, so anyone could pretty much do anything as long as they know they're asked to do it and have the inclination to do so." So, do you and/or your writer really think that unions are just there to stop talented folks from getting better roles when management wants it? Maybe take a moment to Google "unions" and see what they're actually about, but don't go blaming your professional frustrations on unions for everyone to see!
