Hitchcock: Bare breasts more interesting

(On the opening scene of Psycho, with John Gavin (above) and Janet Leigh)
Hitchcock: In truth, Janet Leigh should not have been wearing a brassiere. I can see nothing immoral about that scene and I get no special kick out of it. But the scene would have been more interesting if the girl's bare breasts had been rubbing against the man's chest.
Alfred Hitchcock, 1983 Hitchcock Truffaut pp.266-268
