	Movies - List of Hitchcock cameo appearances

Many of director Alfred Hitchcock's films contain a cameo appearance by Hitchcock himself. The director would be seen for a brief moment boarding a bus, crossing in front of a building, standing in an apartment across the courtyard, or even appearing in a newspaper photograph (required for the film Lifeboat
which otherwise provided no other opportunity for him to appear). This playful gesture became one of Hitchcock's signatures and fans would make sport of trying to spot his cameos. As a recurring theme he would carry a musical instrument - especially memorable was the large cello case that he wrestles onto the train at the beginning of Strangers on a Train
. In his earliest appearances he filled in as obscure extras, in a crowd or walking through a scene in a long camera shot. His later appearances became more prominent, like when he turns to see Jane Wyman's disguise as she passes him in Stage Fright, and in stark silhouette in his final film Family Plot
.

Here is a list of Hitchcock's appearances, listed alphabetically by title:
