AFI 100 Movies #61 Vertigo (1958)

This one is quite different to Rear Window (AFI #42) another suspense movie, but this time Hitchcock, goes for a more artistic approach compared to the realism employed in Rear Window.

Jimmy Stewart and Kim Novak are very good in their leading roles, and Barbra Belle Geddes is also worthy of praise as the overlooked former girlfriend Midge.

If you would like to know more about what I made of this movie and Rear Window, have a listen to episode 4 of the Nerdology podcast.
