I need to rewatch this, since i can't remember the scene....

(Mostly i come away from that movie with 'holy crap, Anthony Perkins was so damn pretty!!)

I just saw it for the first time recently and Anthony Perkins' pretty face is probably 50% of the reason I watched.

I'm just happy to see a Hitchcock secret. And yes that is a very uncomfortable movie in many places.

Secret 4 - Psycho (1960 film)

[transcriptanon]

[Picture is private detective Milton Arbogast, as portrayed by Martin Balsam, and Norman Bates, as portrayed by Anthony Perkins, from the 1960 movie "Psycho". The detective has his back to the camera and is talking with Norman Bates somewhere indoors. The picture is in black and white. They both have light skin and dark hair, although the detective is wearing a classic detective suit and hat while Norman is wearing more "everyday person" clothing.]

I wish I could enjoy Psycho, but I can't stand to watch this scene (where Arbogast interrogates Norman Bates) because it makes me feel really uncomfortable. I know it's intentionally meant to be uncomfortable to watch, but I get so much second-hand embarrassment watching Norman attempt to lie about Marion's whereabouts that I have to fastforward the scene.

This is the only movie that has ever made me feel this uncomfortable.

indeed that was a point; it goes to show how good the actors, director and script were that after some fifty years it still makes people squirm

I guess that just underscores Hitchcock's genius. It's a horror film, he wants you to feel uncomfortable. I find it too disturbing and scary to watch, I can watch his others again no problem, but not Psycho. And it definitely effected bathrooms for me, especially in hotels, hate to see an opaque shower curtain, I have to pull it aside!

I just watched the Birds for the first time a few weeks ago OH MY GOD

TERRIFYING movie.

[(Anonymous)]

Haha, I can see what you mean, Anon. :)

About the movie though: I only saw it for the first time recently, and was completely amazed by the whole thing. Incredible film. I already knew the entire story since I had read the book first, but watching it was still an intense experience. (Being with a friend who had never seen it either and somehow didn't know about the plot twists only made it even better!)

I've always found that I don't think Hitchcock's films are gory or violent in the way so many today are. But they are several that are deeply troubling to watch -- Marnie, Frenzy, and Rope are other good examples (Rope has some amazing technical components, as well).
