In Reply to: Self referential jokes in film posted by scottwoo on November 7, 2000 at 02:26:48:
watching film with an awareness that everything shown has been carefully placed--not simply random happenstance, adds greatly to the enjoyment possible.Hitchcock did much more than show himself in his films--the self-referential placements of Birds ("a hobby")in Norman Bate's office in Psycho is the most obvious example that comes to mind. I never tire of watching Hitchcock films--no matter how many times I've seen them, I always find something new to wonder at, and still get jolted by his masterful ability to shock and surprise. He leaves me with the erie feeling that he's standing behind me, in the shadows, reading my mind as I watch, with a knowing smile (he's kind sick that way--like us).
