Vertigo

Alfred Hitchcock is the master of suspense as we have learned over the course of this semester. Three main things that we’ve in his movies were; he would use mounting tension, as seen in rope; he would use the grand reveal as seen in vertigo; and he would balance his suspense with humor as seen mostly in north by northwest. These three things could all be considered suspenseful, especially around the fifties and sixties. The first style of suspense, mounting tension was shown in rope. One…

One point that was expressed concerned the subject of motion. From a medical standpoint, the study topic relates to a serious condition. At one point I fell subject to vertigo of painful proportions. Nausea, syncope, and lack of self-sufficiency are some symptoms. One of the resulting finding was explained to me as to how the vertigo came to be. An inner ear infection caused swelling in my ear that caused the otolith not to move like they should. The otolith are calcium crystals that float in…

Phoniness, falsehood, uneasiness, tension, indecision, gray flannel aspirations, and insecurity were the defining propositions of the decade. Suburbia, American dream, and gender roles also ruled the decade. When men entered domesticity after a long absence after postwar they found it very difficult to settle down. They felt uneasiness and frustration and found it difficult to manage home, work and their very identity. The unrest in the mid-1950s was gauged by the same uneasy representation…

accustomed to, Lady Gaga puts us in the frame of mind of this perverted, odd reality that is trying to tell us something. My favorite line in the entire video is, “She wondered: how can I protect something so perfect?” I was instantly reminded of Vertigo and Scottie’s obsession with the idea of the perfect woman bottled up in Madeleine. Just as Lady Gaga is trying to protect the beautiful perfect world (which is thwarted by evil), Scottie tries endlessly to protect the beautiful entity within…

which appealed in its simplicity and precession of form and ideas.

An imprint of DC Comics, Vertigo originally provided a platform for comics that weren’t directly linked with DC universe superheroes, although more recently has given way to darker stories containing material better suited to older audiences. In the 1990’s, the time when Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman comics were being published, the majority of DC Comics’ readership consisted of boys aged 16 and younger (Craig,…
