Week two – Brittney

This week I watched Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho.  Psycho is about Marion, a woman who stole money from her job to run away. She later needed to stop, so she got a room at a motel. There she met the motel owner Norman Bates. But Norman is not all that he seems, he is also a taxidermist. After the two had dinner, they go their separate ways and Marion takes a shower. There she is murdered by Norman. After a private investigator is hired by Marion’s sister due to her disappearance. Marion’s body is later discovered in the trunk of the car in the swamp next to Norman’s motel and Norman is arrested. The audience later learns that Norman has split personality disorder. His other personality being his crazy jealous mother. Psycho has a deeper message that people are not all that they appear, there can be so much more within them.
