    Well made and entertaining doc on the making of Psycho.

    I want to see the open matte version of the shower murder without the artificial shadowing at the bottom of the frame.

    The theatrical aspect ratio is 1.85-1 which is correct on the blu-ray and DVD. But when shooting the film, Hitchcock and cameraman John L. Russell protected the top and bottom area for television broadcasting. There is story-telling information in the 1.33-1 version that is a perfectly legitimate alternative to the widescreen version. Both compositions are correct. I've gotten into trouble for saying this elsewhere, but there you have it.
