I don't have that reference, but I recalled reading about Saul Bass in Janet Leigh's 1995 book, _Psycho: Behind the Scenes of the Classic Thriller_. Leigh castigates Bass for claiming he directed the shower scene (he apparently storyboarded it). As part of her case she quotes cinematographer Hilton Green: "There is not a shot in that movie that I didn't roll the camera for. And I can tell you I never rolled the camera for Mr. Bass" (p. 69). Does anyone have information about when and why Bass was making the directing claim? ---- Online resources for film/TV studies may be found at ScreenSite http://www.tcf.ua.edu/screensite
