My brief review of the film

Rating: Null/10 (8 January 2005)

One of the most influential films of all time, this is also arguably the best directed film of all time. Hitchcock brought a number of new techniques out in this film, and many clichÃ©s of the thriller genre originate from what was original when this was first released. The amazingly discreet shower scene is one of the best-filmed sequences of all time, put against the chilling music score by Bernard Hermann that haunts the whole film. The acting is also top-notch, especially from Anthony Perkins, who has never had a better role, and most importantly, it is a film that is thoroughly entertaining, even after multiple viewings.
