Vertigo

Genre switches aren’t all too common, so it is always interesting to encounter one, especially one that is done so well. With a lot of mystery films, I often have at least some ideas as to how the film is going to unravel, but there was just no way for me to have predicted the way this one played out. As per usual with Hitchcock films, Vertigo felt ahead of its time and the cinematography and storytelling stood out above all else. I do not want to say too much in this review in order to avoid spoilers, but this is definitelt one of the best representations of obsession I have seen in any form of media. Vertigo is definitely the best Hitchcock movie I have seen so far, and I would assume it is probably the best in his entire filmography.
