My wife's favorite folk-rock band, the Nields, did a whole song called "Alfred Hitchcock" about how the movies affected them in childhood. The songwriter later revisited with an eye on the #MeToo era and the misogynistic treatment of the actresses.

Since we’re on the topic, did any of you own the album ‘Alfred Hitchcock’s ghost stories for young people’?

I must’ve listened to it a couple hundred times as a kid… and it always scared the bejeezus out of me!
