Psycho

Psycho

In September of 1960 Alfred Hitchcock’s movie Psycho was released in the US. It played in Beaumont at the Jefferson Theater (aside: check out the renovated theater where plays are now staged. Stephen Thomas’s widow, Gladys, works there).

There was a bunch of hype about how scary the movie was, but Patrick Sullivan and I were determined to overcome our fear and go. Mom and dad gave me permission and Pat’s mom dropped us off at the theater.text
