Turner Classic Movies will pay tribute to the late Janet Leigh by showing six of her films, including "Psycho," this weekend.
Leigh, a 1961 Oscar nominee for her iconic "Psycho" role and the mother of actress Jamie Lee Curtis, died last Sunday at age 77.
The six-movie showcase will begin at 6 a.m. Sunday with Leigh's movie debut, the 1947 comedy "The Romance of Rosy Ridge." She stars as the daughter of a staunch Confederate supporter (Thomas Mitchell) who falls for a schoolteacher who fought for the Union (Van Johnson).
Other movies in the TCM tribute are the original "Angels in the Outfield," from 1951; the musical "Two Tickets to Broadway," also from 1951; the 1952 adventure flick "Scaramouche"; and the western "The Naked Spur," in which she co-starred with Jimmy Stewart.
The Leigh tribute will culminate with a 4 p.m. showing of "Psycho," the classic Alfred Hitchcock thriller in which Leigh's on-the-lam embezzler falls victim to Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins).
