Synopsis – What to Expect from “78/52”
78/52 is a documentary film that takes an in-depth look at one of the most iconic scenes in cinematic history – the shower scene in Alfred Hitchcock’s classic film, Psycho. The film follows director Alexandre O. Philippe as he interviews some of the biggest names in Hollywood and film criticism, including Guillermo del Toro, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Peter Bogdanovich, to explore the scene from every angle.
