I really LOVE Les Diaboliques, I can't say the same thing about Psycho, maybe because I knew to much about it before I watched it, so it really never surprised me.
Althought I figured out the ending of Diaboliques before too, I have never felt that kind of fear that I felt for the last minutes of the film.
I had to turn off the tv sound and turn on the lights while watching it, and that have never ever happened to me before in my life, and I've seen a lot of movies.
Les Diaboliques is a masterpiece, and, maybe it's me, don't get me wrong, but a lot of times I can't enjoy classic movies, because, I like a more realistic kind of acting, I thing that in the past, actors and actresses overacted too much, and I think that's a problem with Psycho and Casablanca, for example (for me).
I really enjoyed the acting in this movie, it was amazing, specially, Simone Signoret, she was simply fantastic
Please don't insult me for thinking in this way, it just my taste, and excuse me if I made a grammar mistake, Spanish is my first language and I need practice in my English
