From 1955 thru 1965 “Alfred Hitchcock Presents” Gave viewers an opportunity to enjoy his unique world of the strange, mysterious, Macabre and bizarre! On The CBS Television Network! Each week the program opened with a shot of a pencil sketch of the great directors profile, supported by a musical theme that somehow portends what were about to see! And that dear readers is today’s question… We need you to give us the title to this oddly interesting piece? As well as the name of the composer ?
Additionally, it was no secret that the great director had a penchant for beautiful blonde actresses! One such example was Miss Tippi Hedren! We need you to give us the titles of the two great Hitchcock films she starred in ?
