First contact with Hitchcock

Gerardo 2022-04-21 09:01:02

The first Hitchcock film I watched, I have to say that Hitchcock knew how to create suspense and atmosphere in the 1960s, and it was so successful, not to mention the suspense thriller that made people's psychological schizophrenia It is the grandfather of many films now, just from the grasp of the audience's psychology and appetite is enough to be commendable. The whole film seems to revolve around bates' mother, and the murderer seems to have already been finalized. In the second half of the film, the question of the mother's death has also been raised. All directions are leading the audience to the conclusion that the mother does exist. One move is really high, and everything is clear at the end, and it makes sense to explain it with psychology. Such a schizophrenic thriller is rare to see, plus the classic soundtrack, watch it at night, enjoy!

    Marion Crane: Of course not. Am I acting as if there's something wrong?

    Highway Patrol officer: Frankly, yes.

    Marion Crane: Please... I'd like to go.

    Highway Patrol officer: Well, is there?

    Marion Crane: Is there what? I've told you there's nothing wrong, except that I'm in a hurry and you're taking up my time.
