Alfred Hitchcock's PSYCHO (1960) is on Netflix if you'd like to celebrate Anthony Perkins's birthday.
And this time they have a restored 1.85 transfer. Last time it was a fuzzy 1.37 open matte that looked like it was from an '80s VHS.

Today, April 2, in 1944, a man with amnesia checks into a hotel under the name “John Brown”. Psychoanalyst Dr. Constance Petersen follows to help recover his memory (Spellbound, 1945, dir. Alfred Hitchcock).
To the man who stopped his (white cargo?) van in front of my house, got out, took a photo of my house, then got back in and left: thank you for creating some mystery in my life.
I also took a picture of you from my second floor window, which I think you looked up and saw, but it didn't come out very interesting. I hope yours turned out better.

Dial M for Murder (1954) was directed by Alfred Hitchcock and starred Ray Milland and Grace Kelly. A love triangle turns sour - with deadly consequences. Originally intended to be shown in 3-D. There’s a brilliant performance by John Williams as dogged Detective Inspector Hubbard. Anthony Dawson plays Charles Swann, an old acquaintance of Milland’s character (Tony Wendice), who is drawn into the murder plot.

I encountered a TV program that I think all anti-vaxxers should watch during prime time, on all channels, to convey what life was like with polio-caused paralysis, a life that has thusfar been eliminated by the polio vaccine.
#AlfredHitchcock Presents, Season 5, Episode 5, titled "No Pain". It begins with two young lovers that got married, but the husband contracted polio paralysis right after the marriage and the wife had had enough of it.
You get treated to what life is like being confined to an #IronLung encasement and the stress it causes for everybody, and you're sure that his wife intends to put the husband out of his misery once and for all by turning off the iron lung and removing him from it, with 10 minutes on the clock for him to expire. A very young Brian Keith portrays the husband in question. I was unable to find a site that would replay it without a fee.

Nice little find from a clearance bin yesterday to start my weekend.
Creating an unsettling mood for my family at breakfast.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Psycho from start to finish. I may have to remedy that soon.

3 things about Alfred Hitchcock’s SUSPICION [1941]
1. “I’m honest because with you I think it’s the best way to get results.”
2. A game of Anagrams.
3. The car turns around and the film ends.
