Egbert Souse posted:

He went to a school run by Jesuits and was raised Roman Catholic.

Which explains a lot about his films.

I've not seen enough Peckinpah yet.

Only saw Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia a month or so ago. Still need to see The Wild Bunch and Straw Dogs at least.

He was a lunatic violent drug addict who made excellent movies.

If you're gonna watch straw dogs get the out of print criterion because it has the best commentary I've ever heard by steven prince. Completely changed my view of the film for the better.

Wrt to hitchcock, I Confess is a personal favorite of mine thought not many people have seen it.

Apparently he hated working with Cliff Montgomery on it because he was a method actor.

Yeah, Frenzy owns. Especially that long silent pull back after Anna Massey gets murdered.
