David: Movie Trivia

Norman’s mother stabbed the naked woman in the shower again and again. She felt the shock of impact shoot up her arm with every stroke. She heard the terrified screams of the harlot who had tried to tempt her dear boy into sin. Her stupid, weakling son.

And yet, she couldn’t focus. Each time she brought down the knife, her attention was distracted: the water spitting out of the shower head; the rings on the shower curtain snapping one by one as the strumpet pulled it down with her; the blood swirling into the drain, like so much chocolate syrup.

I did a double reverse, is all. Movie Magic Syrup pretending to be blood imagined to be syrup.

It's, like, meta and stuff. It only fits the topic once you take into consideration facts not stated in the text.

Besides, it was this or an argument between Hitchcock and a studio suit.
