Hitchcock Truffaut Quote
Alfred Hitchcock: [Discussing Psycho]My main satisfaction is that film did something to an audience. I really mean that. In many ways, I feel my satisfaction in our art achieved something, often, mass emotion. It wasn't a message. It wasn't some more great performance. It wasn't a highly, appreciated novel that served the audience. It was pure film. People will say what a terrible thing to make and the subject was horrible. The people were small. There were no characters in it. I know all this. But, I know one thing: the use of filming construction of this story caused audiences all over the world to react and become emotional.
