00:08That you film buffs might recognize as the second floor reader's department
00:12from Billy Wilder's Sunset Boulevard.
00:16There I was, a writer, standing out a window.
00:18You knew it! He's a film buff, this guy.
00:23Alfred Hitchcock was notorious for his disregard of the rules.
00:27So when the studio bosses moved his office to a closer location
00:32so that they might keep an eye on him through a large picture of him,
00:35sure we saw the New York Backlog, which was his very own Brooklyn Village, Soho.
00:43Audrey Hepburn's Breakfast at Tiffany's was actually shot right here.
00:47Does anyone here like Breakfast at Tiffany's?
00:49Yeah. Love.
00:52All right, everyone.
00:54Here we are.
00:56Hope you all enjoyed the tour.
00:58Have a great rest of your day.
01:00Enjoy your flight.
01:01Down home safe.
01:03Have a safe flight.
01:04Bye-bye.
01:05Hey, I still can't get my head around that rear window story.
01:07I mean, Hitchcock dug down into the basement of a soundstage
01:10so that he could build a whole apartment block inside.
01:12He was a madman.
01:14I know, and it worked, too.
01:15Yeah, it worked beautifully.
01:17One more time around, Mr. Sugar?
01:18Yes, please, dear.
01:21I can tell you where it's...
