We all go a little mad sometimes... And Alfred Hitchcock certainly seemed to when he decided to follow up his most expensive film to date with a black and white B-movie based on a gritty novel that would never survive the withering glare of the Motion Picture Production Code. Chris & Lizzie explore the restrictions that birthed one of the most influential horror films in history, the brilliance of casting Anthony Perkins, Bernard Herrmann's late-in-the-game musical heroics, and Janet Leigh's unusually positive experience working with Hitchcock.
