You're invited to celebrate Alfred Hitchcock's first foray into the horror genre in 1960!

Join us for a special screening of Psycho (which celebrates its 65th year anniversary), starring Janet Leigh & Anthony Perkins. Paramount wouldn't fund the project as Hitchcock wanted to kill off the lead actress halfway into the movie, so he funded it himself and made it in black & white to save costs. It went on to become the highest grossing film of his career.

With an introduction & post-screening Q&A from local historian & Hitchcock expert Gary Lewis (of Hitchcock Talks & Tours), this is a one-off Castle Cinema special not to miss.

And in case you’re not familiar with the film, here’s a short synopsis:
Phoenix secretary Marion Crane, on the lam after stealing $40,000 from her employer in order to run away with her boyfriend, is overcome by exhaustion during a heavy rainstorm. Traveling on the back roads to avoid the police, she stops for the night at the ramshackle Bates Motel and meets the polite but highly strung proprietor, a young man with an interest in taxidermy and a difficult relationship with his mother.
