Plot
Marion Crane is a restless woman. Her life is unsatisfying and tedious, but that’s nothing that a large influx of cash couldn’t fix. When the opportunity unexpectedly presents itself, she impulsively flees with $40,000 of her employer’s money. By the evening of the next day she has left her old life far behind, and if she had any second thoughts about her actions, her arrival at the run-down Bates Motel is destined to remove any chance of self-recrimination.
This adaptation of the classic Alfred Hitchcock film maintains the unsettling sense of paranoia that pervaded the movie. The specifics of the plot are all but common knowledge to today’s pop culture fan, so the telling of the story is even more important. Artist Felipe Echevarria is more than up to the task. His paintings portray the subtle nuances of doubt, fear and anxiety on faces that are striking likenesses of Janet Leigh and Anthony Perkins
