Review of Vertigo (1958) by Morty_Mcflay — 26 Nov 2019
An exceptionally well-made film. While it’s not as entertaining on first viewing compared to other Hitchcock films like Rear Window and Psycho, it lends itself to closer inspection and theorizing with its seemingly infinite layers of subtle messages and themes.
Great performances from Stewart and Novak guided by the typically pristine direction of Hitchcock and a perfect score and script make this one of the best films ever made. The score I give is more down to personal preference, more a feeling than anything else.
