Review of Vertigo (1958) by Ricardo C — 08 Jun 2012
Hitchcock's got a great deal of pictures I've yet to discover, but chances are I'm unlikely to find a film as downright astonishing and impressive. Surreal, too, considering how it parallels the courses of actions of the characters if you so dare to obsess over its enigmatic charm, as it only ages like fine wine.
Plot wise, unmatched, unpredictable, and psychologically formatted to appeal, bewilder, and whiplash. Acting, suitably performed in a dramatic, classically cinematic fashion with some rare, oddly abstract moments leaping from the screen as though breaking the fourth wall.
A soundtrack that sounds rather cheesy out of context but actually has a legendary score to offer to the trained ear. And the rest is history.
