"Mentally ill", Reivew on Psycho

The beginning of the film "Mentally Ill" is a panoramic view of Phoenix. The camera moves slowly and focuses on a building, a window of a building, and the top view is changed to a head-up view. The camera advances through the window that is only open. I feel that at the beginning of the film, a mysterious and indeterminate atmosphere was rendered. But after the camera advances through the window, there is a scene of a man and woman having an affair in the house, and it feels that the mysterious atmosphere has been diluted by the love of the two men. Later, the heroine stole the property of the company and fled. My thoughts were held tightly, thinking that she wanted to tell a story of escape and pursuit. However, shortly after my conclusion, a heavy rain blocked the heroine’s escape route and disrupted my thinking. The real suspense of the film appeared.
The film has an obvious turning point, which can be clearly divided into the first half and the second half. The atmosphere before and after is completely different. It can be said that they are two unrelated stories, but Hitchcock made them logically connected. It feels like he is going to make a noise.
I really like the lens language of this film, especially the wandering of some empty shots. The props and clothes inside are also in place, and every little detail is related to the plot. For example, the heroine wears white underwear and a white coat when she is affair. When fleeing with the money, he wore black underwear and dark coat.
"Mentally Ill" is a classic in movies, so there are many modern movies that have its shadow, so when we imitate the movies, look at Hitchcock's filming, although its final ending you may be I know, but they won't be able to pass the mountain of Hitchcock again.
