One important
feature of the mise-en-scene is the taxidermied animals, seen when Marian and
Norman enter the Parlour. The darkness and the dull weather connotates the
coldness and gloom of the Bates Motel. Furthermore, the taxidermy is a
reflection on Normans personality. It's an unusual hobby to take up, and to do
so with such animals takes skill and time showing that he has them both. This
also suggests Norman to be a dark and dangerous man and is capable of more more
dangerous activities, as he lures Marian into the Parlour, this suggests along
with the gloomy weather that she will be in trouble.
