The Ideal Husband Understands Every Word His

[when Accepting The American Film Institute Life Achievement Award] I Beg Permission To Mention By Name Only Four People Who Have Given Me The Most Affection, Appreciation, And Encouragement, And Constant Collaboration. The First Of The Four Is A Film Editor, The Second Is A Scriptwriter, The Third Is The Mother Of My Daughter Pat (patricia Hitchcock), And The Fourth Is As Fine A Cook As Ever Performed Miracles In A Domestic Kitchen. And Their Names Are Alma Reville.
