Intertextuality is when a film makes a visual reference from another film. In other words, when a film borrows certain things from other films which the audience may recognise, like the camera angles, aspects of mise en scene, sound or editing. In class, we looked at three different films which borrowed aspects from the most famous thriller, Psycho.
The first film is What Lies Beneath. We looked at a scene where the husband drags the wife, whilst she is unconscious and carries her in to the bathroom and places her in the baths with the shower running.
