Wow Anthony Perkins was so handsome and Janet Leigh was so stunning and glamorous. Two extraordinarily brilliant actors. RIP to both Janet Leigh 1927-2004) Anthony Perkins 1932-1992) They will never be forgotten. The classic movie Psycho still stands the test of time, that the young Zen Z generation of today know of these brilliant actors from reacting to the movie Psycho on TH-cam and they rave and are in awe at there performances, and are very complementary of the acting of these two iconic legends. It's a generational Movie.
OMG!!! This is my favorite movie in the world Anthony Perkins and Janeth Leigh together in front of the horror master's Alfred Hitchcock it's really wonderfull thanks for those great memories!!! I love Psycho and I love Norman Bates!!!
Just saw this film properly at last for the first time this evening. There are films that are awesome, then less than a handful personally that are above that can only describe as elite. This film has just added another one to that very small group.
It’s lovely seeing Anthony Perkins and Janet Leigh being friendly with each other. It helps those of us traumatized by the film to remember that none of that was real.
@DominoPetachi83 Janet was 52 at this tribute in 1979. I think it is the 'bleach blonde seventies style' that you may find makes her look older. She was always very slim but still looked very pretty at 77 when she passed away. The stars of this era did not go 'industrial' on the plastic surgery so they still look or looked like themselves. Cheers:)
Let me tell you something; I travel alot. And whenever I'm by myself in those lonesome hotelrooms and taking a shower... always, I mean, ALWAYS that creepy feeling crawls over my back as if someone is watching me, or plans to kill me. That very shower-scene always flips through my mind when turning the water on... We're talking about a masterpiece in cinema history here!
i was driving cross country by myself, stopped for the night in a motel, took a shower and had a mild anxiety attack thinking about Psycho - to relax I got in bed and flipped on the tv to Rosemarys Baby - a great film but it doesn't scare me, except for this night and Xanax wasn't invented yet.
I love ya Tony. But it breaks my heart to learn that wasn’t you behind the curtain.... just kidding. You are still phenomenal and you are greatly appreciated, acknowledged and greatly missed.
Michael Barraco, Perkins is correct about not being there for the shower scene but incorrect about the stand-in. Hitchcock used two women to play Mother for only the shower scene. Stuntwoman Margot Epper was Mrs. Bates approaching in medium shots and actress Anne Dore was used for overhead shots. The only scene with his male stand-in that Tony called Burt here was when Sam Loomis is conked over the head in the parlor. If you pause those few seconds of fast action you can see that it's a man filmed from behind with short dark hair like Perkins, but with a more buff build than the taller, thinner Perkins. They must have had to re-shoot that scene with a stand-in after Perkins had left for New York theater(?) Don't know of anyone else to notice that and explain why a stand-in for Perkins was used.
You've got to be kidding, i've seen a few clips of him throughout the AFI tribute. He barely moved at all, by this point his health was quite bad and he was very quiet and reserved. A few smiles every once in a while heaven forbid this was a tribute to him. He undoubtedly was enjoying himself.
@Tusc9969 Berry Berenson, Perkin's wife from 1973 to his death in 1992, died at age 53 in the September 11, 2001 attacks aboard American Airlines Flight 11. She was returning to her California home following a holiday on Cape Cod.
Say what you want about Dracula, Creature From The Black Lagoon, the Mummy, the Hunchback of Notre Dame, and other monster films released by Universal Pictures/Studios, but in my opinion, the horror genre, STARTED with Psycho. In fact, I've seen Psycho MORE TIMES than (the original) Halloween and the Shining.
Not exactly. Anthony Perkins said that the Psycho was inspired by a french film from 1955, Les Diaboliques. The american remake of the french film was released in the '90s.
Anthony Perkins was an accomplished & highly respected actor of both stage & screen before he did PSYCHO. And it ruined his career as an actor because he was typecast. If he had to do it over again, I'll bet he never would've gone near it.
It’s funny because that’s what he’s most well known for. I was walking down Hollywood Boulevard about 8 years ago and this guy saw Anthony’s star and was like “look it’s the killer from Psycho!” I don’t think most people nowadays would even know who he was if he didn’t do the movie.
He did it twice again, don't say that. So what if he was typecast? Most actors are typecast especially De Niro who's almost 80 and he still plays gangsters after 50 years!
@@morganzimmerle9237 you're right , we all know him from Psycho although I've never seen the full movie , only the beginning.I 've only watched him in The Trial by Orson Welles. Honestly , I couldn't understand what was going on in that film and I'm not young, I'm 42.
Hitch's two all-time classic masterpieces = Vertigo + Psycho. But Psycho was too disturbing, people couldn't get the shower scene outta their heads. So I'd pick Vertigo as Hitch's Best. Kim Novak could act and was delicious-looking !
I think Mr. Hitchcock was very focused on what Ms. Leigh was saying. In the last shot of him at the end of this clip, I was expecting him to yell "CUT AND THAT'S A WRAP!!!"
You know, his wife adjusted the script; Joseph Stefano wrote the screenplay; Robert Bloch wrote the book; based on the true story of a real serial killer. As much as I admire Hitchcock, he did not fiction Bates nor Marion. He did, however, created the undoubtedly memorable scene, like no other could have directed.
it was Joseph Stefano who came up with the idea of Marion stealing the money and skipping town, none of which was in the book. Hitchcock loved the idea (he loved when women stole things!) but yes, it was a collaboration of many talented people with Hitchcock at the helm.
I stayed in a Motel 6 in Schiller park Chicago it was my first visit to the United States when i went to book in the lovely man behind the desk did scare me at first he had his face almost covered with a black baseball cap i am from Scotland i thought about the movie with Anthony perkins of Physco but thank you Adam at motel 6 you laughed when i said this
She did say that, but I've always though bathing was worse, you can't get up in time if someone bursts in. At least with a shower you have a fighting chance by standing up.. :)
All the talentless bitc@s won Oscars ,like Paltrow and A. Jolie who always plays herself but it's true he never won an Oscar although he was the best.The academy gave him an honorary award , like they were doing him a favour.
Read David Freeman's account of their time together, preparing for his last film, the Short Night which never came to pass...Hitchcock was never thrilled about the AFI's award for he felt it was an obituary...a farewell to Hitch, if you will, and he was in tremendous pain at this point in his life from arthritic knees and most probably the effects of immoderate consumption of 'juice'. According to Freeman, he was frolicking in and out of senility and knew he was close to being snatched by the grim reaper....
I used to have this tribute on VHS back in the day. This is a beautiful looking print considering its age. Is it available to buy anywhere or download? Appreciate any info.

Alfred's reactions here are priceless.

I think they stuffed Hitch for this and just wheeled him out on a trolly.
He had dreadful arthritic pain in his knees by the time of this show, and it tells. I think he only lived a year or two more.
at the end he made a very effective, amusing speech ... stone faced of course ...
😂😂😂😂😂
Clever of Hitchcock putting a dummy of himself there so he wouldn't have to bother showing up until the end
So wonderful, i just seen Psycho for the first time and loved it, a true classic. Both Anthony & Leigh look great wow after all these years
Alfred seems happy to be there.
Wild man, I'm tellin' ya!
Oh yeah his face says it all. He's like a wax figure
I was 9 years old when my cousin took me to see that movie. I am still not over the shower scene.

These two have personality!!!
Tony looked fantastic here - how old was he then? he was the only male from amongst the Hitchcock men who did not go grey or white.
More than 45 minutes after the show ended, it was realized Hitchcock had quietly passed away at the beginning.
Hitchcock's cameo in Psycho is impossible to spot unless someone tells you where it is. I would never have noticed.
Love you Jannet.. ❤
Real Movie Royalty!
you can see why Tony Curtis fell for her
Yeah, but they fought like cats and dogs once they got married. Tony also cheated the hell out of Janet, sleeping with half the starlets in Hollywood.
@Jack Crouch Dickhead
The had an amazing marriage until the last 2 years. Tony was a cad though.
@@shihlin1 She was having affairs too
She looked even better in her prime.

It was about him.he was sick
I rewatched "Psycho" the other night on TCM. The shower scene is still just as terrifying as it was the first time I saw it.
Such an iconic duo ❤
