I'm not sure how accurate this film is, in terms of historical veracity. It is at least entertaining, as it tells the story of how Alfred Hitchcock came to make his landmark movie "Psycho." The storytelling is a bit clunky at points, and it could have probably used a little more editing focus (a few subplots disappear or fall flat), but it definitely has its charms. There are a lot of interesting shots of someone looking in on someone else, which obviously references the element in "Psycho," but also raises a lot of questions about the nature of making a film (not to mention suggesting something important about those of us who watch them).
