Context: This still-frame is from the famous shower-scene from Hitchcock’s 1960 classic Psycho. A sudden rainstorm and wrong turn forces Marion Crane to spend the night at the Bates Motel where she meets the young Norman Bates. They have dinner together and Norman explains his interest in taxidermy and the difficulties of living with his deranged mother Norma. After dinner, Marion decides to have a shower, unaware that Norman is spying on her through the keyhole. Dressed in his mother’s clothing, Norman enters the bathroom. Marion screams. Norman stabs Marion to death with a butcher’s knife. Norman later returns to the crime sense in his own clothes. Believing his mother to be responsible, Norman proceeds to meticulously clean the bathroom, dumping Marion’s corpse and possessions into a nearby swamp.
