Living Hitchcock Actors: Who's Left?
Alfred Hitchcock's cast of actors is dwindling. Who among the living Hitchcock actors is most associated with him? My answer: Tippi Hedren, who tops my list of the Top Ten Living Hitchcock Actors. I've compiled the top 100, separating the bottom 90 alphabetically. Why the list? Just for fun and for Hitchcock fans who want to know that these actors are still with us. If the rumors are true Namoi Watts will play the lead in the 2009 remake of The Birds!
