Ancient Secrets - Pyramids

Since the beginning of time, man has emphasized his power by building monuments. None of the world's structures inspires as much admiration as the pyramids. Pyramids - in the deserts of Egypt and the Middle East, in the jungles of Mexico and in the American prairies - were built of stone as tombs of rulers or places of sacrificial rituals. They are silent witnesses of bygone times and extinct civilizations of antiquity. The secret of the construction of the Egyptian pyramids in Giza, the Aztec Pyramid of the Sun in Mexico, the Mayan pyramids as a reminder of bloody rituals, the ziggurats in Babylonia - all this in the British documentary PYRAMIDS from the series MYSTERIES OF THE ANCIENT AGE.

The Girl

Director Alfred Hitchcock is revered as one of the greatest creative minds in the history of cinema. Known for his psychological thrillers, Hitchcock’s leading ladies were cool, beautiful and preferably blonde. One such actress was Tippi Hedren, an unknown fashion model given her big break when Hitchcock’s wife saw her on a TV commercial. Brought to Universal Studios, Hedren was shocked when the director, at the peak of his career, quickly cast her to star in his next feature, 1963’s The Birds. Little did Hedren know that as ambitious and terrifying as the production would be to shoot, the most daunting aspect of the film ended up coming from behind the camera.
