WSR Narrative Review |

Story Synopsis:
One of Alfred Hitchcock’s most sensational thrillers, Psycho, is based on the novel by Robert Bloch. The black and white film features Anthony Perkins as the disturbed mamma’s boy, Norman Bates. Janet Leigh stars as ill-fated heroine Marion Crane who, while on the lam, should have kept on driving past the Bates Motel—or, better yet, passed on using the motel shower.
