Special Features: #9 on AFI's 100 Years...100 Movies
Perennially on Top 10 lists as one of the greatest films ever made, VERTIGO is Alfred Hitchcock’s supreme achievement, the fullest expression of his cinematic obsessions and the one that goes the furthest in pursuit of them. On a leave of absence after his spell of acrophobia led to the death of a beat cop, San Francisco detective Scottie Ferguson (James Stewart) accepts an unusual assignment from old college classmate Gavin Elster (Tom Helmore): follow Elster’s wife (Kim Novak), not because she is cheating, but because she is possessed! The truth is much more mundane, duplicitous and deadly, with Scottie spiraling first into devastation, then revenge-fueled obsession. DIR Alfred Hitchcock; SCR Alec Coppel, Samuel A. Taylor, from the novel "D’entre les morts" by Pierre Boileau and Thomas Narcejac. U.S., 1958, color, 128 min. RATED PG
