    The movie versions of the Psycho story and the main characters are iconic.

    Considering how Norman Bates is described and behaves in Robert Bloch’s novel,
    why do you think Hitchcock (and screenwriter Joseph Stefano) changed him so drastically?

    Was the film’s Norman a better character?

    Which Norman do you prefer?

    Why?
