  American Gangsters

  • 15 Nov 2007

  American Gangster : as Russell Crowe commented the other day, it's amazing nobody came up with the title before now; the two words fit together snug as a .45 in your fist.

  The murder in the shower from the film "Psycho" has been voted the "best movie death" by Total Film magazine. The deputy editor of Total Film magazine, Simon Crook said: "Some of the deaths in the poll, like The Wicked Witch melting in The Wizard Of Oz, are iconic but laughable, but nearly 45 years on, Psycho's shower scene is still distressing." The clip from Alfred Hitchcock's 1960 masterpiece came in just ahead of Slim Pickens's plummet to earth, straddling a... Read more
