Top 3 Performances?


Psycho
The Fog
Bye Bye Birdie

I have to agree with 'Psycho.' I am so absorbed by Marion's predicament at the beginning of the film that I lose interest in the movie as soon as she walks into that shower.

She is great as Marian Ord in 'House of Greenapple Road' (1970 TV). She gets a chance to play sleazy in that one and she is looking so beautiful aged 43.

I have to include Mrs Harper in 'Harper.' Not that much screen time. She is a private eye's estranged wife who falls under suspicion herself. You don't need much screen time when you're consistently good. And Janet Leigh was.

Little Women
The Vikings
Psycho

That would have been my three choices as well.
