Psycho is the best film ever made!

Rating: 10/10 (18 November 2008)

Without a single doubt, Alfred Hitchcock is the greatest director who ever lived. So, obviously, the fans of his always choose what film they think his masterpiece. For me, that film would have to be Psycho. There's just no flaws. The score by Bernard Hermann is magnificently ominous and eerie. The cinematography is beautifully photographed in black & white. The story is original (it was in 1960). The script is well-written with crisp dialogue and real people with real emotions. And the acting is superb from Janet Leigh's screaming in the shower to Anthony Perkins' jittery stuttering when he's talking to Detective Arbogast. The best scene in the film is when the psychiatrist is explaining what events had just taken place to Vera Miles & John Gavin. Psycho is the #1 movie ever made!
