- The scene where Alma finally tells off Hitchcock when he accuses her of "not being supportive". Helen Mirren is AWESOME.Full support?!? We've mortgaged our house! And might I remind you I have waited on every aspect on this film so far as I've done on every film you've made in the last three decades. The first time you show the film it will be MY notes that you want. I celebrate with you when the reviews are good, I cry with you when they are bad. I host your parties and I put up with those fantasy romances with your leading ladies. And when you're up promoting this film around the world, I will be there beside you endlessly smiling to the press even though I'm ready to drop. And being gracious to people who look through me as I were invisible or elbow me aside because all they can see is the great and glorious genius Alfred Hitchcock. And now, for the first time in years, I dare to work on something that isn't an Alfred Hitchcock production and I'm met with accusations and criticisms? The work I am doing gives me pleasure and purpose and it takes absolutely nothing away from you! Consider this a reminder: I am your Wife, Alma Reville, not one of those contract blondes you badger and torment with your specific directions.
- Alfred acting as if he's composing the audience's screams out in the theater lobby when the shower scene appears during the film's premiere.
