Vertigo



Vertigo is an Alfred Hitchcock psychological thriller from 1958. Jimmy Stewart suffers from vertigo and fear of heights, a weakness that is exploited to cover a crime and to bring us some state-of-the-art visual effects. The plot is overly convoluted and makes little sense overall, but is presented in such a satisfying way that you don't really care.

Not only age blocked, which I am sure I qualify for, but geo-blocked too, which does not make me feel one with the world.

I live in a western country with free health care, mainly unarmed policemen, and with English as the language ... 75% 'white' skinned, European descendant population (for any racists reading) ... which is pretty neutral politically speaking, apart from being nuclear free ... so I don't see any reason to block mine eyes from an Alfred Hitchcock movie.

My brother has them all on old school DVDs so, na na na na na, I can watch it anyway.

And yes, DVDs are old school now.
