Hichcock's career lasted over a century.He created a camera made to move in a way that mirrors a person's gaze, making viewers engage in the voyurge.He framed shots to show anxiety, fear, or empathy as mush as possible and used innovative film editing.Hitchcock's stories often feature fugitives on the run from the law alongside pretty female characters.Many of Hitchcock's films have twist endings and thrilling plots featuring violence, murder, and crime.
Hitchcock directed more than 50 feature films in a career that lasted 60 decades. Often known as the greatest British filmmaker. Hitchcock came first in a 2007 poll of film critics in Britain's Daily Telegraph, this said: "Unquestionably the greatest filmmaker to emerge from these islands, Hitchcock did more than any director to shape modern cinema, which would be utterly different without him. His flair was for narrative, cruelly withholding crucial information (from his characters and from us) and engaging the emotions of the audience like no one else." 

This is a video from youtube which is a trailer of one of Hitchcock's most famous films called Psycho. Looking at his work helps me as you can see the wonders which can be created.
