Hitch and Hedren
Even though Hitchcock introduced Hedren to mainstream Hollywood, she believes he did more bad for her than good. After staying civil for a small time, Hitch started stalking Hedren. He used to drive by her house and stare at her from within his limo for hours on end.

He even forbade male actors from touching her and left food baskets at her doorstep with notes that contained words like “Eat me.” Hedren claims that he stared her even when he was deep in conversation with crew members.
