My boldest film theory is: it's interesting, although unfortunate, to look at the Psycho franchise as a sort of allegory for being gay. I naturally don't think same-sex relationships are equivalent to murder! However, midcentury American society might have done a bit ... Tony Perkins himself had many relationships with other men and was predominantly gay, but did eventually marry and have children with a woman. However, he continued to have affairs with other men, many of whom attended his funeral and consoled his wife. You might see the parallels between the actor's life and Norman's behavior, if you squint.
Thanks, guys get a few tenants doon you's
Cheers! Sounds like a good idea!

Yeah that would certainly be an interesting perspective to watch the films with...
