Jake recently showed me this old Psycho trailer. I wish that all movie trailers were like this one! There is a reason Alfred Hitchcock is known as the master of suspense, but he is also straight up hilarious. I never thought I would giggle so much during a tour of a murder scene.
Lately I've noticed producers whoring out every good scene in the trailer, leaving the actual film-watching predictable and boring. Modern day directors could take a leaf from Mr. Hitchcock's book and leave some secrets for the movie-goer to discover during the film.
Overall, this trailer did exactly what a trailer is supposed to do. I can't wait to go watch this film.
