Hitchcock is a very famous director. Why didn't his work win the grand prize?

Personally, as a master of suspense thrillers and a model of Hollywood directors, Alfred Hitchcock has won numerous praises. Who said he didn't win the lottery? He won two Academy Awards, eight Academy Awards, five different types of lifetime achievement awards and five Oscar nominations for best director, among which Rebecca won 1940 Oscar for best film.

For example, as we all know, Hitchcock hates taking classic novels such as Crime and Punishment as the creative source of his films, and he is not always loyal to and cooperates with a single author. He likes the Hitchcock-style thriller type and takes it as his own symbol. Although Hitchcock never easily shared the fame brought by movies with anyone, he still regarded cooperation with screenwriters as very important. Hitchcock and his screenwriters will discuss the story day and night for a long time, sometimes even for weeks, before the script is actually written. This is very common. Obviously, he likes working with the writers very much. He regards screenwriters as partners, not just technicians such as photographers, artists or actors.

As Bill Crane said, "Hitchcock always presents himself as a controlling person. He would design every shot of the film in advance, and he joked that he would lose interest when the script was really finished. Real shooting is the most boring. " Although Hitchcock's continuous disputes with major film companies prevented him from establishing a better relationship with any editor during the 1940s, this situation changed immediately after he became an independent film producer. He hired hume cronyn to adapt the films The Necromancer and Under Capricorn.
