Psycho was made in 1960 and today is still shocking audiences. The film was directed by Alfred Hitchcock and has a cast featuring Janet Leigh, Vera Miles and Anthony Perkins. The film centers around a woman named Marion Crane (Janet Leigh) who is on the run with 40,000 dollars in which she stole from her boss. While on the run she manages to stay at an old side of the highway motel. She meets the caretaker Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins). She also notices Norman mother who stays hidden in the bates home. Though she never meets her, she hears her yelling at Norman. Later, while in her cabin, taking a shower, she gets to meet mother.... The second half of the movie, Marion is missing with the money and her sister Lila (Vera Miles), Marions boyfriend Sam Loomis (John Gavin) and a private investigator Milton Arbogast (Martin Balsam) team up to find her. But then they soon discover...the truth about Norman Bates....and his mother!
A perfect little gem that still holds up with top notch performances...Hitchcock's best film!
