- This air, isn’t it wonderful?
- Yeah, it’s like… I know you don’t approve, but it’s like a shot of gin. It makes your blood race, your face numb and your spirit soar.

In the opening scene, Marion Crane is wearing a white bra because Alfred Hitchcock wanted to show her as being “angelic”. After she has taken the money, the following scene has her in a black bra because now she has done something wrong and evil. Similarly, before she steals the money, she has a white purse; after she’s stolen the money, her purse is black.

RIP James Gandolfini

“I became very attached to the characters, very fond of them. They stayed with me, all of my life, actually. It was painful, thrilling, all those things when you enter another persona. Yes, you carry some of it with you into your real life. But it was down there on paper. John’s attitude to all actors, if we asked any questions about our characters, was, ‘Hey, I wrote it, but I gave it to you. By this time you should know more about her than I do.’ It belonged to you. It was wonderful.” — Gena Rowlands
