Episode 144 - The Life and Films of Alfred Hitchcock

Abby and Alan sit down to discuss the life and works of Alfred Hitchcock. Unfortunately, we do have to warn that this episode contains some discussion of sexual assault.

Correction: Rebecca did win Best Picture at the Oscars in 1940. The only time one of Hitchcock's films won Best Picture.
