Favourite non-Psycho Perkins role?


Anthony Perkins will, of course, forever be remembered as Norman Bates, but outside of the Psycho franchise which Perkins character/performance is your favourite?

Personally, I think he is a creepy but somehow sympathetic delight as Dennis Pitt in Pretty Poison, holding his own against a superb Tuesday Weld. Terrific performance.

Friendly Persuasion.

Pretty Poison and The Trial... he was a good villain in Ffolkes too

Murder on the Orient Express

Hard to pick just one other than Psycho.

I'll take all above me on this thread and add one:

Winter Kills(1979) He's very intelligent and wacked out in that one.
