Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

preppy-3 Feature length documentary on the making of "Psycho". It's mostly all talking heads with clips from the movie. It goes through every single aspect of the movie. Even the costumes are discussed in detail! The only actor left alive from the movie was Janet Leigh and she's most entertaining going into detail about working with Hitchcock and the movie. The most interesting of all was Patricia Hitchcock (Hitch's only child) who knew how her father and mother worked. Her insights were fascinating. However, all in all, I found this slow-moving and pretty dry. Sure some of the pieces were interesting but not continuously. Still, if you're a fan of the movie you'll probably love this. I also think this is the only footage we have of Leigh talking at length about the movie. So it's OK for maybe a one time viewing.

Geeky Randy Insightful look at the making of one of cinema's most remarkable films ever made by pioneer filmmaker Hitchcock. Interview include star Janet Leigh, Hitchcock's daughter Pat, his assistant Peggy Robertson, the film's screenwriter Joseph Stefano, assistant director Hilton A. Green, Rita Riggs who was in charge of the wardrobe, editor Paul Hirsch, and none other than the HELLRAISER mastermind Clive Barker. A lot of material ended up coming to life in the light-humored HITCHCOCK; however, there are some other stories worth hearing, such as the 'full moon error' (you'll know once you watch it). The Collector's Edition DVD is one place to view this.*** (out of four)

Hot 888 Mama . . . the main one being (from just about every guy I've ever discussed this movie with) just how naked IS Janet Leigh in the shower. SPOILER ALERT: I do not want to break the heart of any guy who'd like to dream, or who has eyesight based more on wishful thinking than what can be quantified in a optician's office, but I'm going to come right out and reveal the cold, hard truth--Janet Leigh is NOT nude in a single frame of the final cut. However, she still had a mind like a steel trap for such key details of her career even 37 years later in 1997 when interviewed for this wonderful "Making of," and she notes that the CREW did see her topless, when her "just in case" falsies fell off because the glue got too dry during director Hitchcock's endless days of shooting this scene; specifically, when she was supposed to be a dead corpse, and could not move to protect her modesty! Also, Hitchcock DID use a totally nude body double (a modestly anonymous woman, apparently) for the revealing shots of Leigh's larcenous "Marion Crane" character through the motel room's translucent shower curtain.

calvindyson This documentary, which is an extra on certain "Psycho" DVD's, is one of the best I've ever watched. It lasts just over an hour and a half, which is quite long, considering the film is fairly old and many of it's actors have passed on.The documentary gives a real incite into the making of the picture. With comments from assistant Peggy Robertson, co-director Hilton A. Green and star Janet Leigh among others. The making of delves deep into how the picture was inspired, how the actors were cast and problems that arose during filming.However the documentary does not contain comments from other stars Vera Miles and John Gavin which is a big disappointment. As I would love to hear Vera Miles' thoughts on Hitchock. Another shame is that Anthony Perkins died years prior to the making of the documentary so no comments are available from him which is another shame.But overall a very well presented "Making Of".
