PSYCHO Special Screenings

Probably Hitchcock’s most famous film is the gothic thriller, PSYCHO. The film features Hitchcock at his most startling pitch and at the height of his manipulative technique. The famous shower scene in which he expeditiously disposes of the co-star, Janet Leigh, is a masterpiece of economic and powerful editing, pulling the audience irresistibly into the climate of the story. No one who has seen the film can step into a shower in a strange motel without that incredible scene running through his mind.
