    pocho, i understand.

    im not saying htichock's films are bad because he didnt write stories. but, at times i think hes overated because the plot and the catch of his movies are the first thing that grabs viewers. and through time it is the elements in the story that makes an impression on the general viewer, like, when i read a magazine witha picture of alot of birds, it has a caption "hitchcock would love to be in this place", but, the truth is, he picked the story from a book. the movie was big budget, the story is very catchy, the tone is not bad, but at times it just doesnt live up to the hype, mostly on the structure of how the story is being told on screen.

    and dont even get me into psycho.
