    		Well, I was being literal.
    Would "Q and X" be the answer to the question you've posed? Or "X" for Hitchcock? Or "None" for Ford or Wyler? It has to do with the movies each of them directed, and there's nothing to connect one director to another -- i.e., this question could be asked about any movie director.

    		Ok, let me try this:

    "What letters of the alphabet are not represented in the titles of films directed by..."

    John Ford: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000406/
    William Wyler: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0943758/
    Alfred Hitchcock: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000033/
    Billy Wilder: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000697/
