In the annals of film criticism certain reviews stand out for me.
(check out ‘Alfred Hitchcock Cameo Appearances’ on YouTube)īernard Herrmann. Double bass hefting (‘Strangers on a Train’).Silhouette behind glass door (‘Family Plot’).As a photographer (‘Young and Innocent’).Holding all the cards (‘Shadow of A Doubt’).Deadpan next to Cary Grant on the bus (‘To Catch a Thief’).From wheelchair to on his feet (maybe the best thing in ‘Topaz’ – reminds me of ‘Little Britain’).The singing/talking in the Tabernacle in ‘The Man Who Knew Too Much’ (1934).The merciless interrogation in ‘Foreign Correspondent’.The long dissolve to the Right Man (‘The Wrong Man’).Above all those umbrellas in ‘Foreign Correspondent’.The possibly poison milk in ‘Suspicion’.That stretchy zoom in/track back (or the other way around) thing from ‘Vertigo’.The big old crane shot to the key in ‘Notorious’.The attempted murder (‘Dial M for Murder’).The attack on Melanie in the upstairs room (‘The Birds’).The fun fair climax (‘Stranger on a Train’).The multiple bell tower sequences (‘Vertigo’).Anthony Dawson as ‘Captain’ Lesgate (‘Dial M for Murder’).Wolfgang Kieling as Herman Gromek (‘Torn Curtain’).James Mason as Vandamm (‘North by Northwest’).Raymond Burr as Lars Thorwold (‘Rear Window’).Anthony Perkins as Norman Bates (‘Psycho’).Joseph Cotton as Uncle Charlie (‘Shadow of a Doubt’).Robert Walker as Bruno Anthony (‘Strangers on a Train’).‘Vertigo’ – I know this contradicts what I said in week 39 but it’s just so darned good….
