Setting the record straight....


For some reason people don't seem to realise that this is a wine advert in the form of an homage to Hitchcock. Why the hell would Hitchcock have a script with whole elements from other films, such as North by Northwest, Rear Window and Notorious?

Technically it shouldn't even be on imdb, as they have a policy of not listing adverts, no matter how famous the filmmaker.

What the *beep* are you talking about this isn't an advert its a short film/mock
made in celebration of a wine company.

I doubt there was anyone dumb enough to think it was part of a real Hitchcock script, dyke.

Am I going to have to separate you two?

Jesus, chill out.

Ladies, relax. In my book, you're both losers for arguing over a commercial.
Obviously it's an homage to Hitchcock and a commercial; no more, no less. I think it was great. And no, it is not a short film that Hitchcock wrote with missing pieces. Any idiot could see that.

SAW IV - C

First off, really cool short/commercial/promo/etc.

I was actually buying it up until the blatant wine bottle shots, then all of the Hitchcock references/homages....then I knew it was a joke! Still mightily clever though.
