Psycho

Not my favorite Hitchcock offering. Maybe because it lacked Jimmy Stewart. I do have to say, in the scene in which Anthony Perkins is climbing the stairs to visit 'mother', he is oddly graceful. I dislike this move in that in uses slasher-esque techniques instead of Hitchcock's usual methods of building suspense such as in Vertigo and Rear Window. The former two films also had a plethora of visual eye candy and interesting framing techniques of the shots which this one simply lacked.
