A story about theory of bipolar person, about homo duplex. Hitchcock painted one psychological picture in wich young man, Norman Bates, showed that mechanism of pushing in unconscious( Froyd) could be a modus of living.

Psycho is an American 1960 suspense/thriller directed by Alfred Hitchcock, from the screenplay by Joseph Stefano. It is based on the novel of the same name by Robert Bloch, which was in turn inspired by the crimes of Wisconsin serial killer Ed Gein. The film depicts the encounter between a secretary, Marion Crane (Janet Leigh), who is in hiding at a motel after embezzling from her employer, and the motel's owner, Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins), and the aftermath of their encounter.
It initially received mixed reviews but outstanding box office returns, prompting a re-review which was overwhelmingly positive and led to four Academy Award nominations. Today, the movie is considered one of Hitchcock's best films and is highly praised as a work of cinematic art by international critics. The film spawned several sequels and a remake. -
