PSYCHO UNCUT - exactly what is different? (1 Viewer)

[Matt Hough]

Oscar®-nominated in 1961 for Best Actress, Best Director, Best Cinematography and Best Art Direction-Set Decoration, PSYCHO stars Anthony Perkins as Norman Bates and Janet Leigh as Marion Crane and has become a cultural phenomenon. The iconic film was named number one on the AFI’s 100 Years…100 Thrills list and features one of the most iconic scenes in film history – the famous “shower scene.”

Best Supporting Actress for Janet Leigh. The five Best Actress contenders were Melina Mercouri, Shirley MacLaine, Greer Garson, Deborah Kerr, and winner Elizabeth Taylor.

what are the 13 seconds restored?

You can't be serious. Or are you being funny? This question has been answered in this thread and other threads repeatedly.

 

[haineshisway]

Well, that is what we've been trying to figure out this whole time.



Did he happen to know which version played in which theaters in 1960?

I doubt Mr. Rebello was alive in 1960, whereas I was.

Since you were, do you remember on which stabbing that Arboghast screamed?

 

[Bryan Tuck]

I doubt Mr. Rebello was alive in 1960, whereas I was.

As a matter of fact, he was born in 1949.

And he literally wrote the book on this film, and is apparently in the process of writing another.

Extended view of Marion undressing while Norman views through the peephole (starts taking her bra off), Norman washing blood off his hands at the sink is longer, extra stabs as Arbogast falls down the stairs.

As a matter of fact, he was born in 1949.

Great film - ruined Anthony Perkins career because he was so good in this film

Now let’s discuss the aspect ratio…

Now let’s discuss the aspect ratio…

The title was released so many times hard to believe that not at least one was the correct version with all the footage screams etc in it this title is lok OZ GWTW etc always being re-issued

I could write a book on the film, too. So can you. Doesn't mean everything is correct.

The German Turbine release from 2019 is (most likely) correct, though it's taken from the older HD master, which is honestly not that bad.

But it's also only available in the big, everything-but-the-kitchen-sink box set that I'm pretty sure is out of print now.

Seems to me Arbogast's "awwww" is right where it should be in this 7 year old post of the German version. I don't understand why it's even being debated.

I will ask him.

 

[Bryan Tuck]

I will ask him.

Just curious if Mr. Rebello ever got back to you.

 

[AlexNH]

Universal told me they just sent the information about the placement of the scream over to the appropriate department for investigation.

How did this investigation go?

There are some weird digital artifacts on the 4K that aren't on the Blu. Needs a new encode? Maybe next year.

When I'm on the verge of deciding to upgrade something, someone will appear finding some fault on the new 4k disc.
When you say "weird digital artifacts"?
Do you have the capability of presenting a couple of screenshots?

 

[moviebuff75]

I don't. Others were the ones who noticed. It's around the 11-12 minute mark. Blu isn't affected but 4K is. They said they were minor but still annoying to them. I was on the verge of upgrading myself and shouldn't have done any research!

If you haven't witnessed the phenomenon yourself, it would have been better to say "Someone has mentioned to me that ..." The way you posted your original message, it reads as if you *personally* have seen the alleged artifacts. Seeing that post, which gives absolutely no details of the extent of the artifacts (severity, duration, etc.), merely serves to stoke FUD. It's entirely possible that the artifacts were a glitch in playback that could not be repeated--which is not at all uncommon with digital media.

 

[moviebuff75]

Ok. In this case, a few others saw the glitches too.
