Ok, while I admire The Player, it really doesn't call to me ... so I gave the first cemetary screening a miss.
But I intend to see Vertigo this coming Saturday, the 26th ... and I suggest we use this Hitchcock classic of obsession, psychosis, duplicity, and dreaminess to kick off the Cemetary Season in Style with a LoT Picnic and Movie Night.
Never has James Stewart played such a creep! Never has Alfred explored on film so suscinctly his own mania for making over women in the cool blonde mode of haughty sexgoddessness.
One of Bernard Herrmann's most haunting scores. Kim Novak as the haughty blonde, Jimmy Stewart as the insane detective. Alfred Hitchcock as one of the world's best filmmakers.
Vertigo!
