The director liked to create tension on-set to draw out stronger performances. But have stories about his psychological tricks been inflated in the retelling? In 1978, shortly after publishing The Art of Alfred Hitchcock, biographer Donald Spoto met the director one last time. At one point, Hitchcock appeared to fall asleep mid-conversation, signalling the end of his involvement with the author. On another occasion, Spoto recalled being bitten by Hitchcock’s West Highland terrier, Sarah, leaving a bruise on his hand. When Hitchcock admonished the dog, Spoto noted it was the first time in four years the director had addressed him by name. These accounts have surfaced in an unearthed transcript of a previously forgotten interview between Spoto and the actor Tippi Hedren in 1980, six months after Hitchcock’s death. But they also suggest something else: an uneasy relationship from the outset, shaped by misreading, distrust and a degree of personal grievance. Continue reading...

Zoological Society of London commissions poet laureate for animation to mark its 200th anniversary Over its two centuries, acclaimed writers and artists have found inspiration at London zoo, from Edwin Landseer’s Trafalgar Square lions, to AA Milne’s naming “Winnie” after resident bear Winnipeg, and Sylvia Plath’s poem Zoo Keeper’s Wife. Plath’s husband, Ted Hughes , who would become poet laureate, worked at the zoo briefly as a dish washer, an experience said to have helped fuel his inspiration for The Thought-Fox.

AND: Some golden oldie anti-tax songs (and a new one ). Stock Depart from the Strait and Narrow Who to believe? On Friday, while markets were still open, the Iranian leadership announced that the Strait of Hormuz was open , while the US declared that Iran was surrendering all its nuclear material . Over the weekend, we learned that these things weren’t strictly true. Foreign ships came under Iranian fire , and US forces seized an Iranian ship . This happened during a ceasefire still due to last until Wednesday. Volatility like this, with two regimes who dislike and distrust each other showing no message discipline whatsoever, should be a recipe for turbulent and choppy markets. Instead, they’ve fostered what is now one of the most remarkable one-way rallies in history. Monday offers the next chance for all the scary news to have a financial impact. So far in Asian trading, equities are muted but oil has had a big reaction: The Strait — through which flows 20% of the world’s oil and many other vital commodities — is not a faucet that can simply open or close. The flow of tankers through the waterway fell virtually to nothing a week into the conflict, and had shown only the slightest sign of recovery: As oil traders point out, the effects wouldn’t yet be evident in much of the world, as it typically takes a tanker about six weeks to get from the Strait to New York and almost a month to reach Shanghai. Companies keep inventories of oil. The problem is yet to make itself felt with full force in the world’s two biggest economies. As for the chances of traffic returning to normal by the end of this month (i.e. Thursday of next week), as defi...
