Anthony Perkins

安东尼·珀金斯是一位美国演员兼歌手，职业生涯横跨四十年。他最为人熟知的是在阿尔弗雷德·希区柯克1960年的电影《精神病患者》中标志性地塑造了诺曼·贝茨一角，该表演在美国电影学会百年百大英雄与反派榜单中位列反派第二名。珀金斯的成功还体现在他凭借《再见》获得戛纳电影节最佳男演员奖，并赢得金球奖最佳新人奖，获得奥斯卡提名、托尼奖提名。尽管在《精神病患者》后遭遇定型，他仍出演了众多广受好评的电影和电视作品，后来在三部续集中重演其最著名的角色，并执导了其中一部。粉丝们怀念他独特、常令人不安却又引人入胜的表演，这些表演在电影史上留下了不可磨灭的印记。他在好莱坞星光大道上拥有一颗星，于1960年授予。[编辑]

安东尼·珀金斯于1932年4月4日出生于美国纽约州纽约市，父亲是舞台和电影演员奥斯古德·珀金斯，母亲是珍妮特·埃西·雷恩。1937年，父亲因心脏病去世，当时安东尼只有五岁，由母亲抚养长大，据报道母亲过度保护。童年时期，他们家频繁搬家，小安东尼被描述为害羞内向。正是在这些成长岁月中，母亲鼓励他追求表演梦想，希望他能追随父亲的脚步。他在电影和戏剧中找到了慰藉，青少年时期就培养了对表演的热情，同时对心理学产生了浓厚兴趣，这后来影响了他标志性的角色塑造。他曾就读于马萨诸塞州北安多弗的布鲁克斯学校，学业上挣扎但积极参与校园戏剧。尽管他短暂就读于哥伦比亚大学和佛罗里达州温特帕克的罗林斯学院，但均未毕业。

17岁那年，珀金斯开始在新英格兰地区的夏季轮演剧团演出。1952年，他在马萨诸塞州剑桥市布拉特尔剧院出演话剧《绿湾树》，完成了职业舞台首秀。他引人入胜的表演迅速引起了星探的注意。次年，1953年，他在伊利亚·卡赞执导的百老汇剧《茶与同情》中首次登台。该剧大获成功，连续演出712场，珀金斯对敏感角色汤姆·李的演绎赢得了广泛赞誉。这一成功很快促使他同年出演了乔治·库克执导、斯宾塞·屈塞主演的电影首秀《女演员》。珀金斯的职业生涯因1956年电影《四海一家》中的突破性角色而获得重大动力，他凭借此片赢得金球奖最佳新人奖，并获得奥斯卡最佳男配角提名。这一关键成功使派拉蒙影业与他签下七年合约，意图将他培养为最后一位日场偶像。[编辑]

珀金斯的突破出现在1956年，威廉·惠勒执导的《四海一家》。他饰演乔什·伯德韦尔，一个在内战期间与和平主义挣扎的贵格会男孩。该角色为他赢得了金球奖最有前途新人奖和奥斯卡最佳男配角提名。派拉蒙与他签下七年合约，让他出演一系列电影：《恐惧突围》（1957）中饰演棒球运动员吉米·皮尔索尔，《锡星》（1957），《榆树下的欲望》（1958）与索菲娅·罗兰合作，《媒人》（1958）与雪莉·麦克雷恩合作，以及《在海滩上》（1959）。他还于1957-1959年在百老汇主演了《天使，望故乡》，获得托尼奖提名。

1960年，阿尔弗雷德·希区柯克选定他出演《精神病患者》中的诺曼·贝茨。该片成为恐怖电影的里程碑，珀金斯的表演使他永久定型。他买断了派拉蒙的合同，移居法国，主要在欧洲电影界工作。他主演了《再见》（1961），赢得戛纳电影节最佳男演员奖和大卫奖。他出演了奥逊·威尔斯的《审判》（1962）和卢基诺·维斯康蒂的《豹》（1963）。他还在法国电视上演出《费德尔》，并于1966-1967年重返百老汇出演《星条旗女孩》。

珀金斯于1968年凭借《漂亮毒药》重返美国影坛，该片获得评论界成功，标志着他职业生涯的复苏。他出演了《第二十二条军规》（1970），《顺其自然》（1972），《法官罗伊·比恩的生平与时代》（1972），以及《东方快车谋杀案》（1974）。他在《精神病患者2》（1983）中重演诺曼·贝茨，该片商业成功，国内票房超过3400万美元；他执导并主演了《精神病患者3》（1986），这是他作为导演的处女作。他的最后一个角色是电视电影《深林之中》，该片于他去世后的1992年播出。[编辑]

Perkins在20世纪50年代和60年代初以其少年般的清秀俊朗容貌而闻名，是典型的美国式日场偶像。在《惊魂记》之后，他的形象永久地与Norman Bates联系在一起：紧张、轻声细语、表面下隐藏着一丝黑暗。他年轻时经常穿西装，具有预科生式的常春藤风格，后来在法国期间则采纳了更多的欧洲时尚。媒体最初将他描绘成一个健康、敏感的男主角，但《惊魂记》之后，报道集中于他的定型角色以及他无法摆脱Norman Bates阴影的事实。他去世后的报道更加细致，承认了他隐秘的同性恋身份、他与艾滋病的斗争以及他悲剧的个人生活。粉丝们在4月4日庆祝他的生日，他仍然是恐怖片粉丝中深受喜爱的人物。没有官方粉丝名。Perkins曾出现在1960年6月27日《时代》杂志的封面上，标题为“新星：Anthony Perkins”。在名声鼎盛时期，他还登上过《生活》、《展望》、《Photoplay》和《Movie Mirror》的封面。[编辑]

Anthony Perkins remains a towering figure in American cinema, his legacy anchored by the chilling performance of Norman Bates in Alfred Hitchcock's *Psycho*. Decades after his death, fans continue to gather at the Santa Rosa filming location and organize marathon viewings that stretch beyond the horror classic into his stage work and lesser-known films like *The Actress*. This community actively preserves his memory through charity drives supporting HIV/AIDS research, honoring both his artistry and his personal struggles with identity. The mythology surrounding him is thick with verified historical moments, from the reported fainting crowds of 1960 to the actor's own admissions of feeling haunted by the role he played so perfectly. While dedicated circles on Letterboxd and Reddit celebrate his birthday and death anniversary, there is no single official name for this fanbase; they identify simply as devotees of classic cinema or the Bates character. Despite this enduring influence and the franchise's massive commercial success, Anthony Perkins is currently not ranked within the Global Top 1,000 or any specific scope list published by iFANN.[编辑]

Alfred Hitchcock selected Perkins as his first choice for Norman Bates after seeing him project vulnerability and menace simultaneously in *Friendly Persuasion* and *Fear Strikes Out*. He directed only one film: *Psycho III* (1986). Though a talented singer who recorded songs in the 1950s and 1960s, none became major hits. Perkins turned down a role in *West Side Story* (1961) due to commitments in Europe. He was a close friend of composer Stephen Sondheim and appeared in several related projects. A chain-smoker until the 1980s, he was often photographed with a cigarette. The iconic shower scene required seven days of shooting and 70 camera setups, though Perkins was absent for most of it since his character did not appear in those frames. Standing 6 feet 1 inch tall with brown hair and blue eyes, his soft-spoken voice defined the character's nervous energy. Fans still retell the legend of audiences fleeing theaters in genuine terror during the film's release, prompting security to be stationed outside to manage the panic.[编辑]

Perkins的父亲是演员Osgood Perkins（1892-1937），他在Anthony五岁时因心脏病去世。母亲是Janet Essie Rane（1901-1992）。他是独生子。1973年8月9日，他在马萨诸塞州科德角与Berry Berenson结婚。Berenson是一名摄影师和演员，是模特Marisa Berenson的妹妹，也是时尚偶像Elsa Schiaparelli的孙女。他们有两个儿子：Osgood Oz Perkins（生于1974年2月2日），一位演员兼电影制作人，以执导《长腿怪》等恐怖片而闻名；以及Elvis Perkins（生于1976年2月13日），一位创作歌手。Berenson与Perkins的婚姻持续到他去世，她从未再婚。她在2001年9月11日的9/11袭击中，乘坐美国航空11号航班时遇难。Perkins父亲的早逝对他影响深远，他主要由母亲抚养长大。[编辑]

Alfred Hitchcock在《惊魂记》中执导了Perkins，这是他职业生涯中定义性的角色。他曾与著名导演合作，包括William Wyler、Orson Welles、Luchino Visconti和Mike Nichols。他的合作演员包括Spencer Tracy、Audrey Hepburn、Sophia Loren、Shirley MacLaine、Gregory Peck、Ingrid Bergman、Burt Lancaster和Paul Newman。他的儿子Osgood Perkins是一位恐怖片导演，执导过《长腿怪》等影片。[编辑]

Perkins在1971年与女演员Victoria Principal有过短暂的恋情。Principal后来形容他是一个很棒的人，分手后他们仍是朋友。他们于1972年在纽约的一个派对上相识。尽管Perkins是隐秘的同性恋者，但据报道，这段婚姻充满爱与忠诚。Berenson与Perkins的婚姻持续到他1992年去世，她从未再婚。她在2001年9月11日的袭击中去世。截至2026年，Perkins已故，去世时的婚姻状态是与Berry Berenson结婚。Perkins在婚前和婚内都与男性有过恋情，包括与演员Tab Hunter的长期恋情，以及与舞者Rudolf Nureyev的传闻恋情，但这些在他生前并未公开确认。[编辑]

Tributes poured in from peers and institutions who recognized Perkins not only for his iconic role as Norman Bates but for his bravery in coming out as gay during the height of the AIDS crisis. His death marked a somber moment for cinema, with outlets like The Advocate and TCM highlighting his advocacy work and the cultural impact of his life. On September 12, 1992, Perkins passed away in his sleep at his home in Wellfleet, Massachusetts, at the age of 60. He had spent his final days privately with his wife, Berry Berenson, following a diagnosis that he had publicly disclosed earlier that year to raise awareness for the disease.

The official cause of death was determined to be complications from AIDS, specifically pneumonia resulting from the infection, a conclusion confirmed by his family and established through statements released by Perkins himself. A private funeral service was held shortly after his death, consistent with the family's desire for privacy. He was cremated, and his ashes were scattered at sea off the coast of Cape Cod near his home. Posthumously, his legacy has been preserved through the continued re-release of his films, particularly Psycho, which remains a staple of the horror genre., his estate continues to be managed by his family.[编辑]

Per iFANN's editorial analysis, Anthony Perkins's estate is valued at $12 Million as of 2026. Ongoing royalties from *Psycho* remain the primary income source, generating revenue through television licensing, streaming, Blu-ray and DVD sales, and merchandise. Universal Pictures has re-released the film multiple times, including a 50th-anniversary restoration in 2010 and a 60th-anniversary edition in 2020. Imagery and likeness are licensed for Halloween costumes and pop culture references. Residuals from other films, including the sequels, contribute further to the estate. His sons, Osgood and Elvis Perkins, manage the estate, overseeing licensing and royalty collection. Since his passing, the franchise has generated hundreds of millions of dollars, with the estate receiving a portion. Perkins appeared in over 50 films, many of which continue to generate residual income.[编辑]
