Today we talked about Vertigo We also talked about: The Score by Bernard Herrmann for Vertigo and Psycho The Jimmy Stewart / Hitchcock movies: Rope Rear Window and even The Man Who Knew Too Much (Hitchcock had licensed the entire book from GK Chesterton. It's too bad he only used the title instead of using the story... twice.) A couple other Hitchcock Movies Notorious Psycho The Iliad Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho by Stephen Rebello Hitchcock A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood OK, I know the U2 song is not about the movie, but the video seems to really like the Sal Bass stuff.

(It would have played in episodes before the main feature each week.
