Here’s a shot of one of my fave costumes – a Hitch/Tippi homage.
Speaking of Hitchcock, this topic came up last night at a Writers Bloc Presents discussion with film critic and historian David Thomson. “Vertigo,” which flopped upon its release in 1958, recently ousted “Citizen Kane” for the No. 1 spot on the BFI’s Sight & Sound poll of the greatest films of all time.
The question: Does “Vertigo” work with an audience or is it best appreciated at home/without a crowd?
Thomson, whose latest book is “The Big Screen,” was enthralling and I particularly enjoyed his assessment of why film noir continues to captivate. Said Thomson: “It’s about the lonely hero who may be going crazy. Many men have had that feeling in the last 60 years.”
Great costume! Love the raven.
Thanks, it’s actually pretty easy to pull together.
