I am a scaredy cat.<br /><br />My sister recently reminded me that she'd watch horror and disaster movies and I'd vacate myself from the room -- actually run upstairs and read Sherlock Holmes, Perry Mason or Nero Wolfe (and maybe a Dorothy Sayers or Josephine Tey), not many options in those days.kathy d.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-91161243623015538492012-05-19T20:38:21.459-04:002012-05-19T20:38:21.459-04:00I know, Dorian.

Nah, this is more of a collector type thing. Remember they also did the doll of Tippi Heddrin in The Birds. Very strange.<br /><br />I think the reason I never liked the movie - at least when I saw it then - was that I figured out what was going on pretty early. <br /><br />You're right though, all the violence is basically implied.

Can you see buying that for your child?<br /><br />More seriously, I think Psycho is one of Hitchcock's best - not least because you never really see the violence you think you see. It's no slasher flick; it's Bernard Herrmann's music, and Hitchcock's masterful editing, that makes you think you've seen a really horrific murder.Les Blatthttp://www.classicmysteries.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-830571346744629342012-05-18T18:39:16.456-04:002012-05-18T18:39:16.456-04:00This brought a big smile to my face.This brought a big smile to my face.Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17786139533776263328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-87483419105379830892012-05-18T16:26:27.218-04:002012-05-18T16:26:27.218-04:00My combined love of tacky souveneirs and the macar...My combined love of tacky souveneirs and the macarbe means that this would be right up my street!! :)Sarah Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17530253746802487595noreply@blogger.com
