103- Lifeboat

from There's Hitch · host Norm DeGuerre

Analysis and comedic take on Alfred Hitchcock's 1944 film Lifeboat. The movies opens with the sinking of a merchant ship torpedoed by a Uboat (German submarine). Tullulah Bankhead is shown as a survivor and the lone passenger on a floating lifeboat fashionably attired. One by one she picks up eight survivers including 4 crew members, 3 other passengers, and a German sailor from the Uboat sunk during the opening altercation. Tensions slowly rise as passengers go missing and the German sailor becomes increasingly aggressive. There were two sets designed for this film which contained identical life boats. One set was the boat drydocked and the other set was a large water tank with the boat floating. The podcast title "There's Hitch" refers to the identification of Hitchcock's cameo role in each examined film. Hitchcock's solution for doing a cameo on a small boat is his most ingenious and famous of all.
