Ep. 541: Vertigo (1958) — The Greatest Movies of All Time
Listen now
Description
Dear friends and familiars, we welcome you back to our Anti-trash 2024 marathon. This year, we have decided to tackle the Sight and Sound greatest movies of all time. We now find ourselves at the feet of the former reigning champ—a one-term champ—Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo. The classic from the Master of Suspense finally usurped Citizen Kane in 2012, but fell victim to a new title-holder in 2022. So, how does the second greatest movie of all time hold up? We discuss Hitchcock, dream logic, obsession, and much more as we analyze Vertigo. Join us now—but don't lose your footing!
