'Psycho' star was addicted to drugs
Indo-Asian News Service
London, April 9 (IANS) Late "Psycho" star Anthony Perkins was so addicted to drugs that he wore a mask to breathe as much marijuana smoke as possible.
According to contactmusic.com, these claims were made by a new biography "Anthony Perkins: Split Image".
It says he depended on drugs. Perkins struggled with being a family man and drugs helped him open up and show affection.
The author writes: "Under the influence of the drug (cannabis), the usually withdrawn actor opened up, becoming friendly, even intimate. He became so dependent that he had a special inhaling device made, weirdly resembling a gas mask.
"After the theatre or a session of therapy, he would come home and immediately pull the rubber strap over the back of his head, covering his nose and mouth so he could breathe only smoke. He also began experimenting with LSD and cocaine."
