American cinema has often used for the construction of their set, the paintings of Edward Hopper ( compare the store in June 2008 - The Simpsons ). This artist, considered the founder of realist painting, painting the bleak and lonely life of America of his time. His paintings froze moments of everyday life that were consumed in cold offices or anonymous motel. Many directors have "used" these paintings for the realization of their sequences.

used a painting: House by the Railroad to rebuild the house left and distressing by Norman Bates in Psycho .
