Movie Madness Museum
The museum has more than 100 one-of-a-kind costumes and props that span the entire history of cinema – from the silent era to modern classics.
Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942) – James Cagney’s Tap Shoes
Yankee Doodle Dandee
Tap Shoes worn by James Cagney
These custom made tap shoes were worn by James Cagney when he sings and dances to the “You’re a Grand Old Flag” musical number. This remarkable and iconic slice of film history originated from James Cagney’s estate, and was previously sold at a Profiles in History auction in 1996 along with a number of his other personal treasures. Although he was a respected and admired force in the film industry from the beginning of his career until the very end, Cagney was not the typical sort of screen character which the Academy members tended to honor. Hence, it follows that his one and only Oscar win for Best Actor would be for this thoroughly patriotic biopic of the great stage entertainer George M. Cohan, in which Cagney literally danced his heels off, and in these very shoes to boot.

Psycho (1960) – Mother’s Knife
Psycho
Knife
Knife used in the shower scene in Alfred Hitchcock’s PSYCHO, as well as in the 1983 sequel.
The knife on display at Movie Madness is one of two original knives used during the famous shower scene in Alfred Hitchcock’s PSYCHO. Hitchcock did not believe in trick knives, so he had two knives made out of balsa wood created for this scene. The first knife had a sharp end which was used during most of the filming of the shower scene. The second knife was shortened and rounded at the end, designed so it could get as close as possible to Janet Leigh’s stand-in. This helped create the illusion that the knife was actually stabbing Janet Leigh’s character Marion. It was used in only three frames of the movie. The PSYCHO knife on display at Movie Madness is the only surviving knife from this classic film. This very same knife was used again by director Richard Franklin in the 1983 sequel, PSYCHO II, when Vera Miles character, Lila, is stabbed through the mouth.
