Anthony Perkins’ final expression in Psycho (1960) is chilling. Hitchcock told him to stay almost completely still, letting that faint smile do the work. A brief skull dissolve seals it.

In the Psycho novel, Norman Bates is a short, balding, overweight loner. Hitchcock cast the handsome, soft-spoken Anthony Perkins instead for Psycho (1960), a deliberate move to make Norman sympathetic, so the reveal would land with far greater shock.

Anthony Perkins being cast as Norman Bates in PSYCHO (1960) was such a smart move by Hitchcock. The novel describes Norman as a short, balding, overweight loner. Perkins was handsome and soft-spoken, making Norman far easier to trust.

“I’m guessing either AJ has told him that’s his plan or Usyk’s said to AJ, ‘you can still do this’. 👀 “I think now the goals have completely shifted.” 💫 Anthony Joshua is gonna go for undisputed in 2027 😲

Ziyu sometimes feels down when he gets criticized, but Tian is always the first to notice even the slightest changes in his expression and always tries to cheer him up (even if it doesn’t always work, he still does everything he can to make Ziyu smile). They’re so sweet 🤧

Alfred Hitchcock on the reason for ki!!ing off the Janet Leigh character early in "Psycho" (1960) & the emotional response he expected from the audience: "Hitchcock: 'Psycho' (1960) is probably one of the most cinematic films I’ve made and there you get a clear example of the use of film to cause an audience to respond emotionally. Interviewer: It was primarily an emotional response you were after from your audience? Hitchcock: Entirely. That’s the whole device. After all, the showing of a violent murder at the beginning was intended purely to instill into the minds of the audience a certain degree of fear of what is to come. Actually in the film, as it goes on, there’s less and less violence because it has been transferred to the minds of the audience. Interviewer: The use of Janet Leigh to be ki!!ed early in the film, is to upset one’s sense of security because the star is expected to survive to the end. Hitchcock: Oh, no question about it. The ordinary person would have said “Janet Leigh, she’s the leading lady, she must play the lead.”’ But that was not the intention at all. The intention in the early part was to portray average people and in this particular case to deliberately divert the audience’s attention into a character in trouble, you see. And you follow the adventures of a girl deliberately detailed to keep you away from anything that’s going to turn up later on, you see." (Alfred Hitchcock's interview with Ian Cameron & V.F.Perkins, 1963) P.S: On this day, 66 years ago, "Psycho" (1960) premiered in New York City, USA.

Kendrick Perkins on KAT 💀 “Me and him spoke for a brief minute, that man got a certain level of focus. His voice done changed in this postseason. When you hear him do his post game interview, it went from being squeaky to now all the sudden he has a deep voice”

The way Fourth’s expression shifts is incredible, a mix of longing, sadness and quiet vulnerability. All he wants is to talk to his parents in heaven Seeing him hold that incense burner as if it were a bridge connecting him to them completely broke my heart 💔 #TicketToHeavenEP1

He starts with that intense, almost stern expression while eating. Then, on being asked, “naam kya hai unka,” his face sharpens, becoming attentive. There’s a brief flicker of confusion as he processes the question, and the moment he realizes he is being asked about Ila… that soft, almost shy smile appears. So many emotions in seconds, all effortless, all real. Irrfan Khan was, arguably, the finest actor of our times. It’s been six years since we lost him.

TRUMP says young men still support him and are proud he’s not letting Iran get a nuclear weapon. MITCHELL: The nuclear polling is huge bc Trump was told that and it tricked him into an Iran strike. It’s true statement that ppl don’t want Iran to have a nuclear weapon. But he was never told by anybody who understood polling, at what cost? The fact that Trump is still clinging to that shows he was manipulated and he’s being selectively shown polling basically to steer him into war. In retrospect, that’s gonna be a major critical flaw in this admin.

Tom Hardy still can’t believe he got to work with James Gandolfini in his final movie, The Drop “They told me, ‘You’re going to love him, he’s got a massive heart.’ And he was very sensitive, intelligent, kind.” “I just wanted to please him with the work”

Shane McMahon pitched an idea to Vince and got rejected. When Shane persisted, Vince handed him a knife and told him to stab him in the chest if he wanted it badly enough. The way Paul Heyman tells the story is chilling.

Maresca:🗣️ “ Liam Delap deserved the red card it was a stupid challenge. I told him to stay calm three to five times. We completely lost control of the game after that, and it was hard for the players coming on to change anything. ”

Quentin Tarantino on why he loves "Psycho II' (1983): "I’ve always been a big fan of 'Psycho II' (1983) and a huge fan of the director, Richard Franklin, who did 'Road Games' (1981) and 'Patrick' (1978) before this. He was my favorite of all the Australian directors; He was the Australian Hitchcock. Those films are why Universal brought him over to do 'Psycho II', which was a very big deal. Also, I feel that 'Psycho II' has the very best performance by Anthony Perkins of all time. I think it's one of the great lead performances in any horror film ever made. I completely care about Norman Bates in this thing, and that’s f**ked up. I remember at the time with friends saying if they’d just f**king left him alone, he’d been ok, alright? If that f**king Vera Miles bitch had just left him alone, he’d have been fine! He was really trying to be good, and they all got what they f**king deserved!" ("The horror sequel Quentin Tarantino surprisingly prefers to the original", Jordan Potter, Farout Magazine, 2023) P.S: On this day, 43 years ago, "Psycho II' (1983) was released in the USA and Canada.
