Yesterday it Was the Photos…

Today it is the official trailer dropping.

Enjoy!

 

ILC’s Take:

This looks absolutely beautiful. In watching this trailer, I am very happy about  the prominence of Alma Reville (his wife) has in the story.

For many who are not heavily into the Hitchcock biography, this film looks like it will shine a well overdue light on the woman, a supportive and heavily influential creative force in her own right, behind the man.

Of course that is not to say that we may also be peeling away few layers from “The Master of Suspense” himself.

I will definitely be seeing this one!

BBC Magazine Article on Hitchcock’s Psycho

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/magazine/8593508.stm

This BBC article is all about the 50th Anniversary of one of Hitchcock’s masterpieces, “Psycho.”

As a youth, the scene that scared me was always  the shower scene. As I got a bit older, my “favorite” scene was the scene when Martin Balsam walks (creaks) up the stairs to meet his fate. Still disturbs me to this day.
