The Behind the Scenes Pic of the Day just goes a little mad sometimes. We all go a little mad sometimes. Haven’t you?

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with today’s Behind the Scenes pic!
Psycho is one of those rare movies where knowing the big twist doesn’t hurt it in a rewatch. Anthony Perkins deserves a lot of credit for that. Every time I watch Psycho I get sucked in to Norman Bates’ aw-shucks charm and forget for a split second that he and the evil “Mother” are one in the same.
Maybe it’s not so much forgetting, but a striving for the ending to be different this time, that Norman has a Vader-like turn to good against the evil Janet Leigh-slaughtering “Mother.” It’s a silly thought, my rational brain knows better, but the yearning is there nonetheless.
Today’s pic features Hitch and Perkins on the set of Psycho. It’s not the most relevatory picture I’ve posted, but any pic with Hitch and Perkins together onset is worth its own day, no?
Enjoy!
If you have a pic you think should be included email me. I’m looking for the iconic, the rare or the just plain cool behind the scenes shots to feature here.
Tomorrow’s Behind the Scenes Pic is a cheatin’ bitch. See ya’ then!
