Alfred Hitchcock was the master of suspense without a doubt. He could take simple tales and create scenarios within his movies, that in my opinion only a genius could so realistically transfer from page to screen.
In movies today there are a cast of thousands and special effects available to directors, that Hitchcock could only have dreamed of. But, nevertheless we sat biting our nails in anticipation, or jumped out of our skins while watching the plot unfold in Strangers on the Train, The Birds, Lifeboat, Psycho and Rear Window.
This renowned director achieved what we as fictional writers strive to do with our written word and that is to produce an end product which allows the viewer, or reader as it is in our case to enter into our imaginary world.
Whatever you're writing, reading, or watching this holiday weekend, have a great one!
