The Lady Vanishes

“Alfred Hitchcock. Of course I need to include Alfred Hitchcock. With my last pick, I would add Lady Vanishes. I don’t think he ever topped the skill, and the... Just the sheer joy of making people hold their breath through suspense. The Lady Vanishes. And this is the gentleman vanishes.”

“Yes Mr Hitchcock Alfred of course I learn a lot from him now when The Lady Vanishes yeah and I remember with my brothers when we were watching a Hitchcock movie like Psycho or others you know in fact we used to play a game. We will try to imagine who is the villain who did the crime what will happen next and of course we will fail because he was oh it's was impossible with Hitchcock he will take you all over the place.”

“First of all, The Lady Vanishes. I'm not an Alfred Hitchcock fan, I'm just going to tell you that. Yes, he's a genius, but his early movies I like the best, and this is one. I haven't seen it in a while and I can't wait to see it again.”

“La dama desaparece...”

“First thing I see up there is The Lady Vanishes. Hitchcock. Which is one of my favorites of his. There’s a looming threat. Psychological thrillers I think are so much more interesting. I think a lot of modern filmmakers could take a leaf out of his book, that he’s never gratuitous. The violence is always implied. It’s left to your imagination, which I think is much more compelling and engaging than just showing, you know, extreme violence... And Hitchcock doesn’t do that.”
