Home Is Where the Horror Is: Psycho
Date: Sunday, May 8, 2022
Time: 4–6pm
Location: O Cinema South Beach @ 1130 Washington Avenue
Homes can be haunted by ghosts, but they can also be haunted by memories—especially the memories of a disturbed mind. Few films have portrayed that kind of haunting to more terrifying effect than Alfred Hitchcock's 1960 masterpiece, Psycho. Spend part of your Mother's Day with Norman Bates and his mother at the first installment of our summer horror film series, Home Is Where the Horror Is. After the screening at O Cinema, stick around for a discussion with FIU Film Studies program director Andrew Strycharski to delve into the dark corners of the Bates Mansion and the role it plays in this indelible film.
Presented in partnership with O Cinema South Beach as part of The Wolfsonian's Mark Mamolen program series on American homes, investigating how the design of living space powerfully expresses individual personality and social values.
$11; $7.50 for Wolfsonian members
