Review of Vertigo (1958) by Ninon M — 29 Aug 2017

One of Hitchcock's most labyrinthine works, and definitely his most troubling, 'Vertigo' is a riveting film which is perhaps one of the most artistically accomplished films of the director's career - with its unsettling plot adapted from Boileau-Narcejac's 'D'entre Les Morts', it is a mad, thought-provoking work.

'Vertigo' is more than a cinematic achievement; it is an artistic one, as powerful in its visuals than in its sound (I can't find the words to describe Herrmann's score), as brilliant in its acting than in its directing, and it goes just as high in terms anxiety and haunting ability than any film can go, and I guess in every art.
