This episode features Tony Lee Moral discussing Alfred Hitchcock's legacy and the controversies surrounding his life and work.
For over a century, Alfred Hitchcock has remained one of cinema’s most influential directors.

His thriller “The Lodger” (1927) marked the start of his signature style, which was later exemplified in classic films like “Vertigo” (1958), “North by Northwest” (1959), “Psycho” (1960), and “The Birds” (1963).

While he never won the competitive Academy Award for Best Director, he received five Oscar nominations, two Golden Globes, the Irving G.
