IMDb Picks: October's Indie Picks4 of 7
78/52
As a huge fan of Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho, I've been looking forward to seeing this documentary since it debuted at Sundance Film Festival earlier this year. The title refers to the 78 shots and 52 cuts that comprise the iconic shower scene from the classic thriller and the documentary includes interviews with filmmakers, editors, composers, and actors who take the film apart and voice their admiration. They include director Peter Bogdanovich, editor Walter Murch, composer Danny Elfman, actor Elijah Wood, and actress Jamie Lee Curtis, the daughter of Psycho star Janet Leigh. Critics have gone mad for it but, as they say, we all go a little mad sometimes. — Michael
