On the other hand, it could as well be caused by him being afraid of friends finding out that he’s not doing well. The director’s isolation from people that grew proportionally to his health problems might be the direct result of physical illness dragging his mental condition down. But anything below that was unacceptable and at that stage of his life, there was no way of hiding his vulnerability. He wasn’t an egomaniac that strived to be perceived as some kind of a superhero, just basic common independence was enough. He didn’t want people to see him as weak and vulnerable and always strived to maintain an image of someone who can function on his own and maintain himself. What must have made the situation even worse is that Hitch had always had a certain amount of pride that was probably stemming from lack of confidence. That didn’t help much though and many reported him breaking down in tears, scared of the fact that soon he will be gone. The most probable scenario is that it is a quote from some Alfred Hitchcock interview (he loved to replace ‘me/you/we’ with ‘one’, so it’s in his style), but it can be entirely fake too. One has to die to know exactly what happens after death, although Catholics have their hopes.” However, given that in his last days Alfred was completely withdrawn from people, it is doubtful that at that time he would suddenly open up and become metaphysical.Īnother thing is that no major biography even mentions this declaration, and if those would truly be the great director’s last words, surely at least some of the authors would research it and deem it worthy of including in their books. It is a popular internet myth that Hitchcock’s last words were: “One never knows the ending. Many friends came to visit to cheer him up. People working there were also ready to help Alfred when something was needed. Lew Wasserman took great care of him and kept his office open at Universal despite it being of no use – no real work was being done anymore. His wife Alma was mentally absent at times and only partly understood what’s going on around her, but was still alive and in no pain.

In his last days, he enjoyed rather cosy conditions. He knew all about the dangers that it brings, after all his mother Emma Jane suffered from it as well and her kidney was one of main culprits of her death. However, the worst was his kidney failure. As Hitchcock has grown older, he developed a heart condition and suffered from arthritis. His health was worsening by the minute too. As he grew older, Hitch became isolated more and more and every death seemed to take bigger toll. And since he lived a relatively long life, he outlived most of them. When William Hitchcock died, Alfred had to do what adults do – find a job to sustain himself.Ī loner by nature, the director still had many friends. To that point, he had the privilege of being a child, sheltered from financial woes. The first one was his father’s, which spelled extra trouble for him. Dealing with death was something Alfred Hitchcock had problems with.
