VERTIGO (1958) - Regarded by Hitchcock admirers as his most accomplished film, this is certainly his most mesmerizing. Scottie Ferguson (James Stewart) is a detective who has left the police force because his fear of heights has caused, he believes, a tragedy. When an old college friend summons him to investigate the eccentric actions of his psychologically perplexing wife (Kim Novak), Stewart’s life takes a new, obsessive course from which he never recovers. The San Francisco locations - Mission Dolores, Fort Point, the Palace of the Legion of Honor - are a special treat for Bay Area audiences. Bernard Herrmann’s soaring score provides the perfect accompaniment to this masterpiece of suspense.
