The Most Iconic Mom on Film
And Why She Actually Doesn't Exist
Okay so this is a confusing title, but there's a reason to it...I didn't want to reveal the character I was talking about.
So can you guess who it is that is the Non-Existent yet Always Present Mother on film?
Anyone? Anyone? No one? Well then the answer is...
Norma Bates!
Of course it is, she's non existent since Norman killed her years ago, but she's always present because of Norman's split personality disorder. Thus giving birth to one of the biggest twists in cinematic history and is the cornerstone of an iconic film from an iconic film maker Alfred Hitchcock.
Ironic how the most legendary mother on screen is actually no there and to begin with was a bad one at that.
So to the all the Mothers in the world even the Psycho one's but especially my loving Mother who I adore beyond anything else, we love you and...
Cause...
For My Mother, From Her Son
