Description

Episode 2: Vertigo (1958) – Obsession, Illusion, and the Art of Hitchcock

In this episode of My Favourite Films, we explore Alfred Hitchcock’s haunting masterpiece Vertigo — a film of mystery, obsession, and identity that continues to captivate audiences decades later. From its stunning San Francisco setting and dreamlike visuals to Bernard Herrmann’s hypnotic score, we unpack how Vertigo became one of cinema’s most influential psychological thrillers.

Join us as we look at the film’s deeper themes of desire, control, and memory — and why Vertigo is now hailed as one of the greatest films ever made.
