A few months ago, I admitted to NovySan that I’d never seen Psycho.
We watched it not long after.
Now it’s an assignment for his Film History class at Santa Monica College, so we’re watching it again.
We meant to do it earlier this week, but that didn’t happen, so we’re watching it tonight.
Coincidentally, Ferrett (one of my VP peeps) just watched it, as well, so I’ll leave you with his thoughts on Anthony Perkins as Norman Bates.
I just filled a gap in my cultural education, and watched Psycho, one of the many films on my list of “What d’you mean you haven’t seen that?!?”
Maybe next week we’ll watch Apocalypse Now. Or something else that makes NovySan’s drop when I say “I haven’t seen that.”
Meanwhile, my friend Be the Boy posted a list awhile ago of Iconic Films He’s Never Seen (followed by lists of books he hasn’t read and band he’s chosen to ignore) – check it out, then tell me what cultural touchstone’s you’ve missed.
