The shot being referred to throughout this essay is that between 01:42:05 and 01:44:17 of Hitchcock’s psychological thriller film Vertigo. Before this shot takes place, we ,along with John ‘Scottie’ Ferguson, have been lead to believe that Madeline Elster committed suicide, jumping out of the church bell tower at Mission San Juan Bautista. In the time following the suicide, Scottie becomes emotionally unstable and blames Madeline death on himself, his acrophobia holding his back from climbing the stairs to stop her from jumping. During this time, he is constantly reminded of her in his everyday life until one day his eye is caught by a woman who reminds him of Madeline, despite their difference in appearance and follows her up to her apartment…
Alfred Hitchcock’s 1958 film Vertigo is now considered by the American Film Institute to be the best film of all time. With that title comes some flack for “beating” out all of the other films that come out ever. Obviously this title is subjective and doesn’t make the film anymore better or meaningful than it previously was, but the backlash from film critics are kind of ironic being about Vertigo. People are writing article after article and blog post after blog post about how Vertigo doesn’t deserve to be on the top of the list and that they or they collective group knows what the “best” film ever is. Wanting Citizen Kane back on top of cinema.…
There are two major themes that dominate the score of this film, a melodic solo saxophone, and dissonant trumpets over rhythmic drums. The sighing of the solo saxophone evokes the lonely melancholy of an individual alienated from the bigger environment he dwelled in. With the smooth, jazzy tones from the eight-bar sax, it also complements the night glamour of the New York City’s urban terrain. When we see Travis on his yellow cab passing through the various neighborhood of this fascinating city, the mellow echo of the saxophone just devours all the restless we have, and let us fall into the Travis’s world of loneliness. The second theme corresponds to the psychotic tendencies of Travis, with the unresolved, dissonant chord played by trumpets and drums.…

The major differences between The Artist and Vertigo stem primarily from their more immediately manifest differences with The Artist a silent and black-and-white film, while Vertigo utilizes color and sound to complement the actions of the actors. While The Artist takes on the style of a late silent era film, Vertigo is more characteristic of the early new wave films. Due to its silent nature, The Artist necessarily mandates longer intervals between cuts and features more dramatic and emphasized acting, which already contributes to a stylistic difference between the two films. This era difference also reveals differences between the two films in their overall plot-lines and in how they end, as new wave films typically follow less generic plot-lines…
Vertigo gives great examples of expressionism with the shots of staircases throughout the movie. Symbolically, staircases often suggest mystery and disorientation. Expressionism films have used the symbolic staircase from the beginning, and some of the most famous film scenes are set around a set of stairs. I got a sense of tension and anticipation watching these types of movies. In addition, color plays a vital role.…

A 27-year-old electrician is describing symptoms that do not meet the full criteria for any of the disorders in the anxiety disorders diagnostic class of the Diagnostic Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (5th ed. ; DSM-5; American Psychiatric Association [APA], 2013); therefore, a diagnosis of other specified anxiety disorder is appropriate. However, it should be noted that the symptoms described are highly characteristic of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and meet 5 out of the 6 criteria for GAD. More information or further development is needed to determine if the client has GAD. For one, the client claims that he has many worries—e.g., worries that involve the health of his parents and his social approval level at work.…
There were several scenes in Vertigo that movie could have served as the conclusion. In Vertigo, there were screen blackouts that made me think, and maybe other viewers, that the movie was ending. One blackout occurred after the death of “Madeleine”. Because the viewers were brought back to the opening scene by what happened prior to this scene, an ending here seemed appropriate, especially with the idea of ending at the beginning. Another scene seemingly fit as a conclusion was after Midge told the doctor that John was and still is in love with Madeleine.…

Vertigo is considered to be the greatest mystery film of all time according to American Film Institute’s rankings.…
