This scene from PSYCHO shows Marion driving away from
committing a crime (stealing money.) The shot shows a close up shot of Marion’s face as she drives away. The close up gives us the impression that
Marion is scared, hopeful or just thinking about what happened. This is quite
an uncomfortable shot as her face is stern and wide eyed showing that she is
not backing down.
The lights behind her connotes
that she is leaving her town behind in the way that she wants to spend her life
with her boyfriend (even though he has been divorced). Furthermore the lighting
to the image is very dark, yet her face is quite bright still. This connotes a
sort of pathetic fallacy as she is
turning to crime and becoming much darker as a person, however as her face is
quite lit up it shows she still has innocence and goodness still in her.
