Next - Rear Window - As a photographer with a broken leg, James Stewart takes up the fine art of spying on his Greenwich Village neighbors during a summer heat wave. But things really begin to get hot for Stewart, Grace Kelly and the unassuming audience when he suspects neighbor Raymond Burr of murdering his invalid wife and burying the body in a flower garden. Previous - Psycho (Collector's Edition) - Alfred Hitchcock's landmark masterpiece of the macabre stars Anthony Perkins as the troubled Norman Bates, whose old dark house and adjoining motel are not the place to spend a quiet evening. No one knows that better than Marion Crane (Janet Leigh), the ill-fated traveler whose journey ends in the notorious shower scene. As first a private detective (Martin Balsam), then Marion's sister (Vera Miles) and boyfriend (John Gavin) search for her, the horror and the suspense mount to a terrifying climax where the mysterious killer is finally revealed. It took seven days for Hitchcock to shoot the shower scene--employing seventy camera set-ups for forty-five seconds of this now famous footage--and not an actual bare breast or plunging knife is to be found in the final cut, just illusion through montage.
