The Birds - Leaving the pet shop with two of his own Sealyham terriers, Geoffrey and Stanley, as Tippi Hedren enters.[3]
Blackmail - Being bothered by a small boy as he reads a book on the London Underground. This cameo is 19 seconds long.
Dial M for Murder - On the left side in the class-reunion photo.
Easy Virtue - Walking past a tennis court carrying a walking stick.
Family Plot - In silhouette through the door of the Registrar of Births and Deaths.
Foreign Correspondent - After Joel McCrea leaves his hotel, wearing a coat and hat and reading a newspaper.
Frenzy - In the center of a crowd, wearing a bowler hat; he is the only one not applauding the speaker; and a minute later, right after the victim washes ashore, standing next to a gray-haired man with a gray beard.
I Confess - Crossing the top of a staircase.
The Lady Vanishes - In Victoria Station, wearing a black coat and smoking a cigarette.
Lifeboat - In the "before" and "after" pictures in the newspaper ad for "Reduco Obesity Slayer".
The Lodger - At a desk in the newsroom.
The Man Who Knew Too Much - Possible cameo walking across the road in a dark trench coat as a bus passes by (unconfirmed).
The Man Who Knew Too Much - Watching acrobats in the Moroccan marketplace (back to the camera).
Marnie - Entering from the left of the hotel corridor after Tippi Hedren passes by.
Mr. & Mrs. Smith - Passing Robert Montgomery in front of his building.
Murder! - Walking past the house where the murder was committed.
North by Northwest - Missing a bus, just after his credit passes off screen during the title sequence.
Notorious - At the big party in Claude Rains's mansion, drinking champagne and then quickly departing.
The Paradine Case - Leaving the train at Cumberland Station, carrying a cello case.
Psycho - Through Janet Leigh's window as she returns to her office, wearing a cowboy hat.
Rear Window - Winding the clock in the songwriter's apartment (Some argue that Hitchcock breaks the fourth wall in this cameo, possibly turning to look at the audience in a "What are you looking at?" sort of manner, but is actually turning to speak (lips move) to Ross Bagdasarian, who clearly turns his head in response).
Rebecca - Walking near the phone booth just after George Sanders makes a call.
Rope - His trademark silhouette can be seen on a red neon sign advertising "Reduco" in the view from the apartment window.
Sabotage - Hitchcock walks on the sidewalk from the center to the (viewer's) left, looking up right after the lights go back on and before the lady shuts the kiosk window.
Saboteur - Standing in front of "Cut Rate Drugs" as the saboteur's car stops.
Shadow of a Doubt - On the train to Santa Rosa, playing cards, back to the camera.
Spellbound - Coming out of an elevator at the Empire Hotel, carrying a violin case and smoking a cigarette.
Stage Fright - Turning to look back at Jane Wyman in her disguise as Marlene Dietrich's maid.
Strangers on a Train - Boarding a train with a double bass as Farley Granger gets off in his hometown.
Suspicion - Mailing a letter at the village postbox (long shot). / Walking a horse across the screen at the hunt meet.
The 39 Steps - The man tossing a white cigarette box while the bus pulls up for Robert Donat and Lucie Mannheim to leave the theatre.
To Catch a Thief - Sitting to the left of Cary Grant on the bus.
Topaz - Being pushed in a wheelchair in the airport. Hitchcock gets up from the chair, shakes hands with a man, and walks off to the right.
Torn Curtain - Sitting in the Hotel d'Angleterre lobby with a baby on his knee. He shifts the child from one knee to the other.
The Trouble with Harry - Seen outside of the window - the man walking past the parked limousine of an old man who is looking at paintings.
Under Capricorn - In the town square during a parade, wearing a blue coat and brown hat. / One of three men on the steps of Government House.
Vertigo - In a grey suit walking in the street with a trumpet case.
The Wrong Man - Seen in silhouette narrating the film's prologue. Donald Spoto's biography says that Hitchcock chose to make an explicit appearance in this film (rather than a cameo) to emphasize that, unlike his other movies, The Wrong Man was a true story about an actual person.
Young and Innocent - Outside the courthouse, holding a camera.

LIKE If you are against racism (omar little), Tuesday, 11 December 2012 23:02 (thirteen years ago)

i think Lifeboat is probly the cleverest and funniest

Roobarb and Custos (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 11 December 2012 23:03 (thirteen years ago)

Great idea. North by Northwest without thinking about it, but I'll have to scan the whole list before voting.

Going with the Sealyhams.

Albee Thousand (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 27 December 2012 00:04 (thirteen years ago)

Lifeboat will rightly win this, but got to rep for the double bass in 'Strangers on a Train'.

Anyone watch "The Girl" on BBC last night? Its hard to know what really went on between Hedren and Hitchcock in the end really. Either way, Toby Jones as Hitchcock in it was amazing.
