Veteran actor Michael Douglas has confessed to watching outtakes of Janet Leigh’s shower scene in classic thriller ‘Psycho’ when he was a teenager.
Michael’s movie star dad Kirk Douglas had got his then 16-year-old son a job at Universal Studios in 1960 as Alfred Hitchcock was shooting one of his most famous films, reports channel4.com.
Michael told American TV show Centerstage, “This was the time Hitchcock was making ‘Psycho’. Every lunchtime, we’d go to the commissary, get our little lunch bags and then head on down to the ‘Psycho’ editing room to look at all the outtakes of Janet Leigh in the shower. We’d be sitting there, eating sandwiches,
going, ‘Stop it there!’ Wow!’”
