About this title

Review:

Meticulously researched and irresistible...required reading not only for Psycho-philes, but for anyone interested in the backstage world of movie creation. --Anthony Perkins

Stephen Rebello's enthralling 1990 account, Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho, is at heart the story of a marriage. 'What if someone good made a horror picture?' asks Alfred Hitchcock of his wife Alma Reville early on in Sacha Gervasi's clever and witty drama about the making of Psycho. It was Psycho that so emphatically answered that question in 1960. --The Guardian
