Alfred Hitchcock
USA, 1960, 1:49
Starring: Anthony Perkins, Janet Leigh
Psycho thriller fierce, persistent nightmares, is a work eminently retina. A black hole that sucks the viewer's eye into a vortex hopeless. Typically, fatality Hitchcock is gearing logic. Here, it is inevitable organic collapses on itself so absurd. The sequence inaugural plunge almost "arbitrary" in the hotel room where Marion Crane and Sam Loomis have ébattus, fixed from the outset this dynamic spiral.
telluric The horror of Psycho, magnified by the faithful musical collaboration of Bernard Herrmann, compounded by the gaming power of Anthony Perkins, is also enormously to the benefit of Janet Leigh. Minor actress of the 50s, icy beauty as the Hitchcock liked, she emerges here a magnetic sexuality and ambivalence, but without offering us more than what the situation requires. It has often been said that the magic Black's shower scene is the result of a learned emotional cocktail in the viewer, between its desire / pleasure of seeing the naked heroine and terror caused by the surprising burst.
The shower scene, concentrated in 45 seconds, is the fruit of seven shooting days. She would need 70 different shots. It is a festival of subliminal manipulation that devastates the subconscious with its own weapons: horror spectral shearing music, after a nightmare. And we must add, aesthetic virtuosity of each plan, exceptional timing of each effect. Psychosis is not a masterpiece because it is appalling, but because it is frighteningly beautiful.

The Music of Bernard Herrmann
In 1955, Bernard Herrmann Alfred Hitchcock meets the director who will remain as key a career was booming, the bucolic and enigmatic The Trouble with Harry (The Trouble with Harry?, 1955), embodies their debut. The Man Who Knew Too Much (The Man Who Knew Too Much, 1956) - which contains the famous scene in the concert hall where he directs the orchestra itself, The Wrong Man (The Wrong Man, 1957) - Movie generic enough to jazzy, romantic Vertigo (Vertigo, 1958), the dynamic North by Northwest (North by Northwest, 1959) at the beautiful love theme, especially Psycho (Psycho, 1960), which was written for strings only (and whose influence will forever mark the history of music film) will be as milestones essential and indispensable in their fruitful collaboration.

Alfred Hitchcock / Gus Van Sant
In 1998 Gus Van Sant takes the Alfred Hitchcock film shot by shot. Far from the vanity of a simple remake, Psycho is perceived more as a reflection on the perception of things, on the impregnation in the imaginary, on the memory.
