Alfred Hitchcock Wanted His First American Movie To Be About the Titanic
Psycho director Alfred Hitchcock had grand plans to make his first American movie about the doomed ship the Titanic, but legal issues got in the way.
When examining the greatest directors of all-time, quality is much more important than quantity. Some of the most acclaimed filmmakers have a relatively small output of films. While there’s no questioning that Alfred Hitchcock has made innumerable classics, it’s almost just as impressive that he maintained such a consistent level of quality while making so many films. Despite directing over 50 films, including several underrated gems, Hitchcock didn’t get to realize all of his ambitions within his lifetime. Long before James Cameron made his 1997 Best Picture winning epic, Hitchcock planned to make an epic romantic disaster movie about the sinking of the Titanic.
