Zizek reads the house on the hill in Psycho as the three Freudian floors of the mind.

The release of this new movie is in time for Oscar consideration and there's scuttlebutt about how Hopkins might win a trophy for portraying Hitchcock, who never got one when he was breathing.

Hitchcock has much in common with pulp fiction writers like Jim Thompson who earned more after they died than when alive, the difference being Hitchcock was immensely popular, and Bel Air wealthy, when he was still among us.
