Quotes:

  • Norman Bates: Would you care to share my toasted cheese sandwich?
    Mrs. Spool: No thank you.
     
  • Norman Bates: I don't kill people anymore.
     
  • Norman Bates: Mary, I'm becoming confused again, aren't I?
    Mary: Of course not!
    Norman Bates: [holding the knife] Don't lie to me! Not you!
    Mary: Yes, Norman, you are becoming confused again!
     
  • Norman Bates: Just, don't let them take me back to the institution.
     
  • Dr. Raymond: Norman was not convicted of murder. He was found not guilty by reasons of insanity, and since he is no longer insane, he has the right to live a normal life like you and I.
     

Trivia:

  • Anthony Perkins was very jealous of Meg Tilly and how the press was making more of a big deal about her role, so he tried to get her fired many times while making the film.
     
  • When Mary and Norman first go into Norman's mother's room, before they turn the lights on, you can see Alfred Hitchcock's silhouette on the wall to the far right.
     
  • The reflection of young Norman Bates in the doorknob when he flashes back to his mothers' poisoning is Oz Perkins, Anthony Perkins son.
     
  • Not based on the book of the same name.
     
  • The original house set was used and the motel was reconstructed.
