Synopsis
Alfred Hitchcock's 1958 film "Vertigo" - in which obsessive ex-cop James Stewart pursues troubled loner Kim Novak throughout San Francisco - is one of the most dissected, discussed and revered movies of all time. Now, for the first time, the story of this remarkable film is revealed. Writing with the full cooperation of the director's family and many crewmembers, Dan Auiler offers up a remarkable in-depth recreation of Hitchcock's signature thriller. The result is one of the most through and illuminating studies of a single film ever published, and a testament to the enduring power of Hitchcock's masterwork of suspense.
