Brian De Palma

Uncle of actor Cameron De Palma.

[on whether he saw the film Hitchcock (2012)] Yes, I bought the book to see if it was actually real, what happened? I don't remember Hitchcock having problems with his marriage during the making of Psycho (1960). So, I thought it was interesting.

[Alfred Hitchcock homage] Films frequently reference the work of Alfred Hitchcock, using similar locations, camera techniques/compositions, musical scores by Bernard Herrmann (a frequent Hitchcock collaborator), and blondes as leading ladies.
