Alfred Hitchcock's cameo appearances


A quite comprehensive assemblage, lacking only "Easy Virtue (1927), Blackmail (1929), Foreign Correspondent (1940), Suspicion (1941), Spellbound (1945), The Paradine Case (1947), and Under Capricorn (1949)." This is much better than the link I posted earlier today in the smorgasbord.  I do wish that the person who compiled it had come up with some audio background other than an endless loop of the Funeral March of A Marionette.

  2. Yes, I remember now about that "drag" cameo being suggested by someone. I wonder if it has ever been resolved...

  3. According to the comments at this Telegraph article in 2008 -

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/2565551/Did-Alfred-Hitchcock-make-a-secret-cameo-appearance-in-drag.html

    - the woman is actress Jessilyn Fax.

    - and who "also appeared in the previous REAR WINDOW. She appeared in a number of memorable films including KISS ME, DEADLY, THE GHOST AND MR. CHICKEN and THE TROUBLE WITH ANGELS. She also appeared on ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS. She is listed (uncredited) as being in NBNW on the IMDb website.

    And one commenter says she is visible through the train window in a different scene.
