The Behind the Scenes Pic of the Day features Hitchcock working with his most difficult star!

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with today’s Behind the Scenes Pic!

Today’s pic really makes me smile. It’s the kind of image I want to blow up to 24X36, frame and put up on my wall. It’s not really behind the scenes of any movie, really, but it is what appears to be Hitch giving direction to Leo the Lion, MGM’s famous roaring logo.

This is one of those pictures that is just magical to me. Hitch’s body language, the framing, the angle of the mic, the position of the lion, the slice of time that is captured add up to one of my favorite images on the harddrive. Hope you guys dig it as much as I do. Click to embiggen.

 

 

Tomorrow’s behind the scenes pic fibs a lot, but a column’s charm is 50% illusion!
