Who has directed more Best Picture Oscar-winning films, Alfred Hitchcock or William Wyler?
William Wyler William Wyler (born as Willy Wyler; July 1, 1902 – July 27, 1981) was an American film director, producer and screenwriter. Notable works include "Ben-Hur" (1959), "The Best Years of Our Lives" (1946), and "Mrs. Miniver" (1942), all of which won Academy Awards for Best Director, as well as Best Picture in their respective years, making him the only director of three Best Picture winners as of 2017. Wyler received his first Oscar nomination for directing "Dodsworth" in 1936, starring Walter Huston, Ruth Chatterton and Mary Astor, "sparking a 20-year run of almost unbroken greatness."
List of The Alfred Hitchcock Hour episodes The following is a list of the 93 episodes of the television program The Alfred Hitchcock Hour, which is a continuation of the program "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" (1955–60). "The Alfred Hitchcock Hour", like its predecessor, is an anthology series in the thriller genre. NBC renamed the program when they extended its running-time from about 25 minutes to about 50 minutes. Both programs were hosted by Alfred Hitchcock, whose directorial work in thriller films is extremely influential. Hitchcock directed only one episode of "The Alfred Hitchcock Hour": "I Saw The Whole Thing" (Season 1, episode 4).
