Alfred Hitchcock Complains About His Hotel Room


Since we're coming up on Halloween, this struck me as particularly funny. Here's an excerpt by Andrew Meek, head to McSweeney's for the rest.

"I am also less than pleased with the facilities. The en suite décor is twee to the point of insult. All bathrooms should be brilliant white to contrast with the emission of certain bodily fluids or chocolate sauce. My bathtub is green. Dark green. This simply will not do."

You'll probably find that most famous people, past and present, had/have their faults. Hitchcock had a thing about blond ice queens but, afaik, he wasn't a serial philanderer, a drug addict, a pedophile, or a holier-than-thou idiot who preached to the people about using one piece of toilet paper per poo, so I think it's OK to remember him for his great film work, don't you? Even the blond ice queens he had a thing about come off great in his films, so...surely, they forgave him.
