Spielberg was an unknown who used to sneak into the Universal studios to watch how films were made. One day he walked onto the set of Torn Curtain and stood frozen watching Hitchcock, the director he admired most, talking to Julie Andrews. He stayed there for about 45 minutes until Hitchcock noticed him. He did not ask who he was or come over to greet him: he whispered something to an assistant, who walked straight up to Spielberg and threw him off the set. Years later, Jaws turned that intruder into one of the most famous directors in the world. Spielberg tried again to meet Hitchcock, but he refused the encounter because he had sneaked onto his set. Steven spent decades dreaming of sitting face to face with his great idol. The closest he ever got was the day Hitchcock ordered him thrown out without ever saying his name. A story of admiration, rejection and destiny between two cinema legends. C73qBp0lElV DLe8o4cxRPA a81PK4XycvK grSVncnVRQc M7so5GE0dKj dLMUHWXlLoF dPnprhoL0aT
