Animal abuse is rampant in the U.S., right under everyone's eyes, for the entertainment of the public. The brutal confinement and pain of training methods of wild animals in the circus, the aquatic and theatrical shows, leads to retaliation by the animals. Eventually they find the right time to strike out, and they will.

Birds I am fine with - spiders are an entirely different matter.

I had to have help getting up these stairs because I've been tackled by so many lions and tigers. Really. I'm like an old football player.

I shouldn't be married.

I kinda go for the Jane Eyre type of film. I am fascinated by classics.

I could really use a corporate sponsor. People think that because you're in the movies, you're rich. I have allocated all my resources to Shambala so the animals will always be safe.

So I think it is common knowledge that Hitchcock had fantasies or whatever you want to call them about his leading ladies.
