- Quotes
[on "Psycho" (1960)]: Hitchcock had decided to do a picture that would cost less than a million - it came in at $830,000, I think - so it had to be shot in black-and-white. Certainly, it worked better in black-and-white; so did "Touch Of Evil". Color tends to brighten things up too much; I always try to take the color out.
