The pen of God! There's a reason why movies from half a century ago can be so fascinating! The whole movie has been in a panic, and Anthony's acting skills are amazing! Hitchcock is Hitchcock enough to be placed on the first page of film history...

Nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the 33rd Academy Awards, he stole her body and even treated it like a living person. So he started thinking and speaking for her, giving her half his life so she could speak. Sometimes he might play two people in a conversation at the same time, other times, the mother takes the whole role. He was never a complete Norman, but he was often a complete mother. split...

It marked the end of the classic era of horror and the beginning of modern horror. The application of montage, mise-en-scene, rhythm, and sound is a textbook. In a bathroom murder scene, as many as 78 close-up and close-up shots of knives, human bodies, spray heads, bathtubs, etc. were assembled in 45 seconds, and the shots were switched quickly and dazzlingly, creating a thrilling visual impact. The process and the ending have always been unexpected, and Norman Bates has left people with...

From the moment when he fled with a lot of money and was questioned by the police, Xi Pang used excellent camera scheduling and background sound to lay out the suspense step by step, and reached its peak in the most classic bathroom killing scene, of course, he did not forget Detectives investigate there to startle the audience again. As the earliest split personality film, this film has become a template for later generations in the plot setting and character performance of this type of film....

Create a thrilling atmosphere with music and editing. The end of the film seems to me to be the finishing touch. Did Norman really "become" his own mother, or did he want to become the mother he had killed forever in order to escape the criminal law? Fei Xi's handling of this film is also different from previous films. The first third is talking about stealing money and absconding, and driving in the rain begins to enter the real theme. Fat West had very clear requirements for the soundtrack of...

This movie is saying: Hitchcock is a movie
We are all in our private traps.
Everybody has a private island.
Everybody has something to hide.
Everybody's heart lives a monster.
No matter how hard you claw, you cannot step out your own island.
This is a truth cannot be proved, but the reason for the loneliness lies in everyone.
Voyeurism;...

Dr. Fred Richmond: Like I said... the mother... Now to understand it the way I understood it, hearing it from the mother... that is, from the mother half of Norman's mind... you have to go back ten years, to the time when Norman murdered his mother and her lover. Now he was already dangerously disturbed, had been ever since his father died. His mother was a clinging, demanding woman, and for years the two of them lived as if there was no one else in the world. Then she met a man... and it seemed to Norman that she 'threw him over' for this man. Now that pushed him over the line and he killed 'em both. Matricide is probably the most unbearable crime of all... most unbearable to the son who commits it. So he had to erase the crime, at least in his own mind. He stole her corpse. A weighted coffin was buried. He hid the body in the fruit cellar. Even treated it to keep it as well as it would keep. And that still wasn't enough. She was there! But she was a corpse. So he began to think and speak for her, give her half his life, so to speak. At times he could be both personalities, carry on conversations. At other times, the mother half took over completely. Now he was never all Norman, but he was often only mother. And because he was so pathologically jealous of her, he assumed that she was jealous of him. Therefore, if he felt a strong attraction to any other woman, the mother side of him would go wild.
[Points finger at Lila Crane]
Dr. Fred Richmond: When he met your sister, he was touched by her... aroused by her. He wanted her. That set off the 'jealous mother' and 'mother killed the girl'! Now after the murder, Norman returned as if from a deep sleep. And like a dutiful son, covered up all traces of the crime he was convinced his mother had committed!

Sam Loomis: You never did eat your lunch, did you?
Marion Crane: [on the bed in her underwear] I better get back to the office. These extended lunch hours give my boss excess acid.
Sam Loomis: Why don't you call your boss and tell him you're taking the rest of the afternoon off? It's Friday anyway - and hot.
Marion Crane: What do I do with my free afternoon? Walk you to the airport?
Sam Loomis: Well, we could laze around here a while longer.
Marion Crane: Checking out time is 3 P.M. Hotels of this sort are interested in you when you come in, but when your time is up... oh Sam, I hate having to be with you in a place like this.
Sam Loomis: Married couples deliberately spend occasional night in a cheap hotels.
Marion Crane: When you're married you can do - a lot of things - deliberately.
