For a way-back look at a civilized society and city, the movie “Vertigo” is a treat. Wonderful street scenes of the era, and of course, an amazing Hitchcock work of art. I am just old enough to have personally experienced that world, and my heart aches for it.
It was still a Republican, family-friendly city in 1958 when “Vertigo” was made. 10 years later, it went insane.
