The Secret Window

So this blog will be a little different too. I'm going to compare Psycho and The Secret Window.

1. Both of the killers in the movies are schizophrenic.
2. Both killers have lost the person that's most important to them.
3. Both live alone.
4. One thinks his other personality is out to get him and one thinks his personality loves him.
5. There is a shower scene in both films.

6. Both wear specific articals of clothing when in their made up personality (mother's clothes, hat)
7. One gets away with murder and one doesn't.
8. In Psycho, Norman completely turns into his mother. In the Secret Window, Mort turns into a third person completely different from himself and John Shooter.
9. Mort has a dog, Norman doesn't.
10. Mort wants to get rid of John Shooter. Norman doesnt want to get rid of his mother.
