You know what I think? I think that we're all in our private traps, clamped in them, and none of us can ever get out. We scratch and we claw, but only at the air, only at each other, and for all of it, we never budge an inch.

I finally after all these years watched Alfred Hicthcock's classic Psycho starring Anthony  Perkins as Norman bates. A women named Marion Crane steals money from her boss then buys a car and drives far away from Phoenix to go and marry her partner Sam. But by nightfall she becomes tired and stops at a place called the Bates. Where she's greeted by Norman Bates(Anthony Perkins). Then after he invites her to have dinner with him. Then he goes back to his home behind the motel to tell his mother he's tells him no in a loud voice which starts an augment between the two which Marion here's from the open window in her room. Then he comes down and they eat.Afterwords she goes back to her room to take a shower. You can probably guess what happens next. This is a film has one of the most well kown scores in film history which is composed and conducted by the great Bernard Herrmann. "33% of the effect of Psycho was due to the music." said Hicthcock.
