Vertigo-a-Gogo



It's the height of this artist's expression
Just a flight up the stairs from confession
From the tip of the top
A precipitous drop
To a frightening arc of obsession.



James Stewart and Kim Novak in Alfred Hitchcock's very personal Vertigo. Thanks to David and Norm. Image source: Tripod. This verse is only a small part of the For the Love of Film blogathon. Please consider donating to the eminently worthy National Film Preservation Foundation.

Fabulous as always--and I love the saturated color in the stills!

Thankfully there are many intrepid screen-grabbers on the internet from whom I can pilfer these fabulous images.
