Notes
Trivia: Many people claim that just as the final scene at the cemetery fades out to the closing credits, you can briefly see the shadows on the snow forming a face (Madison's or Norman's?). There are two eyes, a nose and lips across the entire screen. Others think this is imagination. (more)

Goofs: Continuity: When Claire sees Madison's face in the water after she throws the tennis ball in the water, in one shot the tennis ball is there, but in the next its not. (more)

Quotes:
Norman: The first time I met you, all I wanted was to spend the rest of my life with you.
[shakes head]
Norman: Not gonna happen now.
