Where is hitchcock in this film?


I always enjoy looking if i can find where hitchcock hides himself in his films. Im almost done watching this and i havent spotted him.

I THOUGHT he might have been the mailman that delivers the mail when our hero goes to the farm estate, but its just a quick cameo that im not sure...

Cameo: In Suspicion (1941), Hitchcock mails the letter. But in Saboteur (1942), we see Alfred Hitchcock outside the drug store. Its right before Freeman takes Barry to the mansion of society woman Mrs. Henrietta Sutton

But only for seven or eight frames. You have to be sharp to catch it.

What I had in mind was boxing the compass.

Just watched "Rope" last night and did not spot him. But he is there. Right at the beginning when the credits roll. He is walking along on the pavement with another person. Difficult to spot because it's a shot taken from high above. Nice one Hitch

Good movie too.
