Genius


Bernard Herrmann is probably one of the most famous composers for film of all time. He's written scores for Martin Scorcese, Orson Welles and Alfred Hitchcock to name a few. I recently rewatched Psycho over my spring break. Not so much as watch, as listen as I was also attempting to clean my room, write a script and study for an exam simultaneously. Naturally I noticed how absolutely amazing the score to Psycho is. This put me into a little Hitchcock craze and after watching Vertigo as well, I've grown to seriously appreciate the major role a film's score plays. Listen to the theme from Psycho here.
