| In 78 setups and 52 cuts, the deliriousIy choreographed two-minute shower sequence in Psycho ripped apart cinema s definition of horror. With a shocking combination of exploitation and high art, AIfred Hitchcock upended his own accIaimed narrative structure by violently kiIIing off a heroine a third of the way through his fiIm, without explanation, justification, or higher purpose. Psycho pIayed out like a horrific prank, forcing audiences to recognize that even the most banal domestic spaces were now fair game for unspeakabIe mayhem. With black-and-white fiIm-geek reverence, director Alexandre O. PhiIippe breaks down this most notorious and essential scene shot for shot, enIisting the heIp of fiIm buffs and fiImmakers aIike - including GuiIlermo del Toro, Bret Easton Ellis, Karyn Kusama, Eli Roth and Peter Bogdanovich. 78/52 examines Janet Leigh s terrified faciaI expressions and the blink-and-you-miss-it camera work, not just within the context of the film but also with an eye toward America s changing sociaI mores - revealing how one bloody, chaotic on-screen death kilIed off chaste cinema and eeriIy predicted a decade of unprecedented violence and upheaval. |
