The master of suspense
Hitchcock holds this nickname based on how his films affected their audiences and his unique editing style as well as bewildering storylines within his work. He had 20th century audiences shocked, on edge and fired up while watching his films and provoked authorities at the top of the entertainment business with the controversial and original contents of his film. He manoeuvred the camera to make it move in a way that is similar to a person's gaze, subjecting viewers to engage in a form of voyeurism. He conducted shots to increase tension, fear, or empathy, and used inventive film editing. His stories are often starring fugitives on the run from the law alongside blonde female characters there to build the storyline and appeal to a wider variety of audience with romance and often maintaining, cunning and manipulative attributes for the other stars to work against/with.
