Well, a boy’s best friend is his mother. Psycho (1960) dir. Alfred Hitchcock

[vampirecorleone]

“It’s sad, when a mother has to speak the words that condemn her own son. But I couldn’t allow them to believe that I would commit murder. They’ll put him away now, as I should have years ago. He was always bad, and in the end he intended to tell them I killed those girls and that man... as if I could do anything but just sit and stare, like one of his stuffed birds. They know I can’t move a finger, and I won’t. I’ll just sit here and be quiet, just in case they do... suspect me. They’re probably watching me. Well, let them. Let them see what kind of a person I am. I’m not even going to swat that fly. I hope they are watching... they’ll see. They’ll see and they’ll know, and they’ll say, ”Why, she wouldn’t even harm a fly...“”

“She needs ’me’. It’s not as if is she were a maniac, a raving thing. She just goes - a little mad sometimes. We all go a little mad sometimes. Haven’t you?” | “Yes. Sometimes just one time can be enough.”

I'm in love with him.

“Throughout the film, Norman Bates nibbles on candy corn. It was Perkins idea to have the character do this, making him appear like a bird eating seed. Hitchcock chose candy corn because he said Perkins had a neck like a chicken, and that reminded him of a chicken eating corn.”

Private Traps

Sometimes we deliberately step into those traps.

I was born in mine. I don’t mind it anymore.

But you should. You should mind it.

Oh, I do. But I say I don’t.
