“HITCHCOCK's COLLABORATORS FROM THE GOLDEN AGE” - (068) ALFRED HITCHCOCK, the iconic “Master of Suspense,” loved to work with certain actors over and over again. Often, he had very complicated relationships with his actors. (Just ask TIPPI HEDREN!) However, he managed to form great working relationships with stars like JAMES STEWART, GRACE KELLY, INGRID BERGMAN, and CARY GRANT. This week, we take a fun look at some of the actors who he loved to work with. So, which actor did he put in more of his films than anyone else? The answer may surprise you.

Muriel and Sydney Box's Oscar-winning script offers a potent fantasy for women. Byronic James Mason believes in Ann Todd's artistic gift for the piano. He devotes himself to her transformation into a world-class pianist. He waits for her to become great and he waits for her to realise she loves him. This is a heady combination that makes only one ending possible. Ann Todd admitted years later that they had a passionate affair during production.

It is.. it has four seasons and the nicest season is the summertime because it's really warm and people play a lot of sports. There are some parks in Montreal and you can go swimming and hiking and biking and rollerblading. It's a very interesting city.Todd: Wow! Were you born in Montreal?Ann: I was born in Montreal and I can speak two languages. English is my first language but I also studied French in high school.Todd: So, were you in a submersion program, or all your subjects in French.Ann: No, I went to an English high school but a lot of people in Montreal are in immersion programs.Todd: OK. Since you learned French, what do you think is the best way to learn a language?Ann: I think that you have to like learning another language and if you have a positive attitude then you can find learning another language fun rather than stressful so I think that I had a few French friends and we would practice.

Edwin的電影沙龍 大衛連一生六次婚姻,他和第三任妻子女演員Ann Todd合作了三部影片, 1952年問世的《一飛沖天》叫好叫座,另外兩部分別是1949年問世的《侯門一入深似海》 (Passionate Friends,港譯),以及1950年問世的《無罪釋放》(Madeleine,港譯)。 《侯門》和《無罪》兩片相較之下,在大衛連為數不多的作品裡知名度甚低, 甚至《無罪》一片在1969年才有於華人世界的上映紀錄。但這兩部「逸品」 也依舊展現了大衛連高超的精湛技術,《侯》片阿爾卑斯山的實景,直接預告他在《艷陽天》、 《桂河大橋》之後以「國際實景」名震全球的藝術風格。 《無》片的古裝、心理、黑色電影情調,更讓人咀嚼再四,百看不厭! #電影 #Ann Todd #國際名導大衛連系列04:言情小品,人性探索—兩部與妻子合作的文藝電影

Academy Award Theater - The list of films and actors on Academy Award Theater is very impressive. Bette Davis begins the series in Jezebel, with Ginger Rogers following in Kitty Foyle, and then Paul Muni in The Life of Louis Pasteur. The Informer had to have Victor Mclaglen, and the Maltese Falcon, Humphrey Bogart, Sidney Greenstreet (this movie was his first major motion picutre role) plus Mary Astor for the hat trick. Suspicion starred Cary Grant with Ann Todd doing the Joan Fontaine role, Ronald Coleman in Lost Horizon, and Joan Fontaine and John Lund were in Portrait of Jenny. How Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and Pinocchio were done is something to hear! THIS EPISODE: Brief Encounter (1946) is director David Lean's brilliantly-crafted, classic British masterpiece. It is one of the greatest romantic tearjerkers/weepers of all time, with a very downbeat ending. Lean's film is a simple but realistically-honest, unsentimental, self-told social melodrama of the quiet desperation involved in an illicit, extra-marital love affair between two married, middle-class individuals over seven weekly meetings, mostly against the backdrop of a railway station. The romantic couple includes a wife/mother looking for escape from her humdrum life and sterile marriage, and a dashing doctor. tale of The screenplay was adapted and based on playwright Noel Coward's 1935 short one-act (half-hour) stage play Still Life. It was expanded from five short scenes in a train station (the refreshment tea room of Milford Junction Station) to include action in other settings (the married woman's house, the apartment of the married man's friend, restaurants, parks, train compartments, shops, a car, a boating lake and at the cinema), although the film still maintains chaste minimalism.
