Quotes
Alfred Hitchcock: [First lines] Good evening. My name is Alfred Hitchcock. Last year the American Film Institute gave me their Lifetime Achievement Award. Tonight it will be presented to an 'actor.' I have been quoted as saying that actors are cattle. What I really said was that actors should be 'treated' like cattle. Hoever, an exception shoukd be made. The actor being honored tonight - I won't keep you in suspense - his name is Jimmy Stewart.
