Psycho violins : *caution*not for children to read submitted by ccrose on July 28, 2019, 12:41am I love to be privy to conversations professionals have about others’ work, here critiquing every frame of the shower scene from Psycho. The focus of this study are the 78 shots and 52 cuts that changed movies forever. Movie pros like Guillermo Del Toro, Peter Bogdanovich, creepy music expert Danny Elfman, actor Elijah Wood watch the scene, analyzing all aspects of individual frames that lead up to shock. No 1960 audience was prepared for full frontal violence and perversion. I saw this movie when I was a child. We had no system then to rate violence in movies and protect children. Boy, I wish I hadn’t seen it. You can’t forget the shock.

Definitely worth watching submitted by aec on August 4, 2023, 8:07am An engaging deconstruction of an iconic scene. The cultutal and cinematographic aspects were especially interesting.
