Episode 47: Vertigo
This week, we go see Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo in 70mm, and then we have a whole lot to say about it! We highly recommend you watch the film before listening to the episode, because oh boy do we spoil all the details. The film is readily available for rental on streaming services such as Amazon, iTunes, Vudu, Google Play, and YouTube. Note: Melissa only introduces Alee during the first segment, because they weren’t sure Tonya wasn’t at the theater yet, and she wasn’t sure she was going to make it in time for the start. She did get to the theater, though, so she hopped in for the after-film discussion… but Melissa totally forgot to introduce her after the music break. Sorry for any confusion! Please join us again on May 7th, when we watch Rita Hayworth play Gilda! Vertigo (1958) Rating: 8.2/10 (463,709 votes) Director: Alfred Hitchcock Writer: Alec Coppel, Samuel A.
