Besides, the idea that Americans would want to institute "a whole range of psycho-sexual repressions," as one commentator put it, is ludicrous. We like our personal freedom too much...

What's fun here is that De Palma has rung cunning changes on Hitchcockian twists. What if the car that Norman Bates watched sink into the swamp had a woman inside, clawing to save her life? What if abnormal Norman were...
