[Pappy Smear]

I really was unimpressed by Vertigo. I kept waiting for it to be interesting, or have some action. Never came. I know it is often ranked as a great movie, so I tried watching with an "artsy-tartsy" mindset, or taking it in the context of when it was made. Still doesn't do it for me.

There’s a case to be made that the film errs in giving the game away too early and switching from a mystery to an unpleasant psychological study that makes the Jimmy Stewart character unsympathetic.
