Fair use rationale for Image:Psycho02.jpg

[edit]

Image:Psycho02.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Mary Lomis adopted?

[edit]

I've not source for this, but either May was adopted or her father was an oriental. Since Lillie was white. GoodDay (talk) 15:45, 18 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well if she wasn't adopted, her father would be Sam Loomis.69.116.2.132 (talk) 23:02, 26 April 2012 (UTC)Sean[reply]
Do not assume that we are supposed to see the character as racially mixed just because the actress is know to be mixed-race. --Orange Mike | Talk 13:13, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
We have to assume it's a casting blunder. Either that or one of Norman's dillusions. GoodDay (talk) 17:38, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Not necessarily. This is an increasingly mixed-race country; what would make this a "blunder"? --Orange Mike | Talk 21:12, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It's a blunder if Mary's parents are both caucasian. Thus my suggestion that perhaps her father (the late Mr. Loomis) was oriental. GoodDay (talk) 17:21, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
That involves a presumption that people are default caucasian. T'aint so; never was. --Orange Mike | Talk 19:15, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It could be viewed as a genetic throwback to the many Asiatic peoples such as the Kipchaks, Huns, Alans, Magyars, Mongols, etc. who invaded Europe at one time or another. GoodDay, I went to school with a blonde Finnish girl and she was very Eurasian in appearance. Indeed, I have blood type B which originated in Asia, yet I've no recent Asian ancestors.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 17:46, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The Finnish girl may have had a lot of Sami blood; many Sami look "Eurasian" to outsiders. --Orange Mike | Talk 19:15, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It's very likely the case. I recall that she and her brother had very blonde hair, but dark, almond-shaped eyes; they were both on the short side as well. The family moved to California from Finland when the kids were small, but she never told me from which part of Finland they came from. Would you say the Icelandic singer Bjork is of Sami ancestry?--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 06:07, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It was a casting blunder IMO (unless, Mary's father was meant to be oriental). I'm noting that Mary's father may have been Sam Loomis (who was caucasian). GoodDay (talk) 15:14, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Although I haven't seen the film, I think it probably was a casting blunder.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 18:21, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Alfred Hitchcock

[edit]

Did Alfred Hitchcock have any influence on this movie? Such as being some sort of ghost producer or advisor? I understand he died before the movie premiered, but perhaps he had some influence in the early development? Anyone who knows anything? --Soren84 (talk) 13:01, 28 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Where did you get the idea that Hitchcock was involved?--Martin IIIa (talk) 05:00, 15 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Citation issues

[edit]

This article is missing a ton of citations, this is probably the most poorly cited article I have ever seen. All these missing citations should be added to the article.--Paleface Jack (talk) 20:37, 28 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
