Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

Uh-oh. What's the context?
It was no secret (and he actually bragged about it "auteur" style) that he abused and tormented people on set (in particular women) to ostensibly get them emotionally shaken enough to suit his "vision."
During "The Birds," for example, he arranged it so a frozen chicken was thrown at the car window of one of the lead actresses as she was rolling up to the set!
