Vertigo Directed by Alfred Hitchcock (North by Northwest, Psycho, Rear Window, The Birds) Made in 1958. Starring James Stewart as Scottie and Kim Novak as Madeline Elster and Judy Barton. Although it received mixed reviews when it was released, it is now widely considered to be one the greatest films of all time. A psychological thriller set in San Francisco and the surrounding area - a retired police detective, who has acrophobia, is hired as a private investigator to follow the wife of an acquaintance to uncover the mystery of her peculiar behaviour.
