In the last Clutch Bags NY blog post, I wrote about Hollywood’s love for biographical movies that retell the stories of influential people who, maybe, the public didn’t know too much about. Lately, it seems that Alfred Hitchcock has been thrown back into the spotlight. But not because of his significant role in the development of the motion picture. Instead, in the releasing of the movies ‘Hitchcock’ and ‘The Girl’, the audience is given a disturbingly odd portrayal of the famed director.
Though Alfred Hitchcock is a cinematic mastermind, Â we at Clutch Bags NY think that Tippi Hedren deserves some spotlight. As mentioned before, Â March is National Women’s Month and Tippi Hedren is definitely a woman who emphasizes a tenacity and tolerance that the Clutch Bags NY team finds admirable. So in the spirit of celebrating women, we believe that Tippi should have her story told.
You may know her as Melanie Griffith‘s mother. Or you may even know her as yet another blonde bombshell who rejected the unwanted advances of Alfred Hitchcock.
