Pop! Pour! Review

Vertigo is #108 on IMDB's Top 250 Movies as of September 2024 (the number may differ based on when you listen). In this episode, we explore how Hitchcock’s use of camera techniques, especially the iconic 'vertigo effect,' mirrors the protagonist's descent into a world of twisted reality and unattainable desires. We also dive into the initial mixed reception, its eventual reevaluation as a cinematic masterpiece, and how it rose to become one of the most studied films of all time…but do we agree? All this and so much more!
