Why So Many On-Screen Catholics in Hollywood Films?

In most movies you will be more likely to see a Catholic than a Protestant. Why are movies that way? Many, if not most, Hollywood movies, and TV shows show a disproportionate amount of Catholic imagery.

    I absolutely love Vertigo. The musical score by Bernard Hermann is otherworldly. I was confused by the film at first but when I thought of it as a voyage into the spirit world, it made much more sense. I see Scotty actually falling to his death from the gutter and/or his fingers letting go just like the police officer. So, every person in the film is also “dead”, but their spirits are in some way struggling with their own passing. Or, they are spirit guides. Watch how Kim Novak floats into the restaurant. Or how spirits show themselves and disappear. That’s why I think it’s a genius piece of art. I’m still haunted by it.

    Yep its a Wonderful movie.....There is a lot to enjoy here. Its not a perfect movie (even though the soundtrack IS). But i love the feeling on how this mystery gradually unfolds. Its like you're being led into all this step by step not knowing whats going on, almost in the same way as Jimmys Stewart' character. And on that note. The negative criticism on Scottie puzzle' me considering Judy (and Gavin) ruined Scotties life. They used him to comit a murder, taken advantage of his illness. He was set-up from the very beginning so he could watch a "suicide" take place. Hence his emotional breakdown for almost a year. Judy and Gavin destroyed an ordinary guy who did no harm to anyone. Too bad Gavin got away though. Bottom line Vertigo grows on you....hence why I'm actually thinking about watching it again today ; ) Jimmy said this about his role in Vertigo; Its a part of the craft, that if you do something entirely different from the image you've created, this is a part of the business, that isn't something to give explanations for and so on. In a way I think its part of an actors duty to learn ways to project different types of characters. Its a part of being a professional actor.

    TIMING..It is all in Hitch`s timing. As a matter of fact, if we want to discuss his legacy let us consider that directors like Mike Nichols used to `time` his own films to get in sync with Hitchcock. And of course the homage in `Virginia Woolf` Mike`s first I believe film. Course it could be Albee`s homage to Hitch as I think it is also in the play. The Gun Dropping a Flag with the word BANG written on it. Echoes of the gun going off `Northwest` and the boy putting his hands over his ears BEFORE the gun goes off. Sandra Shevey conducted the Master`s last one to one in Hollywood 1972. Not only is it the last one to one the director ever gave but in this interview Sandra Shevey confronts Hitchcock with antifeminist tropes which most writers, male or famale, feminist or masculist, tend to avoid. Shevey lives in London where for the past 25 years she has been running a homage Hitchcock tour. www.alfredhitchcockwalk.wordpress.com Book: sandra_shevey@yahoo.com Ck out sandrasheveyinterviews UA-cam (Alfred Hitchcock)

    I watched the first episode and gave up. I came back later to give it a second try. Watched the second episode and gave up. It's pretty but dull and doesn't offer the big-idea thinky-ness that I love in my sci fi. One of Asimov's best known lines is, "Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent." In fact, it's a line that comes from Foundation. I like Asimov's stories because they're written more like mysteries than action stories. It's about gathering information and out thinking your opponent. More Sherlock Holmes. Less John Rambo. Also, the threat to the Galactic Empire was an impersonal one that wasn't easily confronted. It was bureaucracy, loss of innovation, slow decline, nostalgic obsession with past glory, and a misplaced belief that the solution to new problems was something to be found in the past. It wasn't something as personal and limited as hereditary rulers. One palace murder plot (like the hundreds that have taken place throughout history) and that problem's solved. Apple TV gave us the same Foundation series we would have gotten if they'd hired Zach Snyder. Pretty pictures, lots of sadistic violence, big departures from the source material, and a story that makes no sense.

    There are but a handful of movies that are as entertaining now as they were when originally released. This is primarily due to changing tastes and evolving standards of morality. In essence, movies don't age so much as the world around them grows up. For the most part, Hitchcock's movies avoided this fate because they do not focus on the story, the setting, the action, or even the characters. They focus on the inner workings of the human mind. More precisely, they take you to the mind's darkest places. This is an area we are all familiar with but seldom admit to. Yet, because it is so foreboding, it is fascinating to peer in. With the added bonus of giving us greater insight into our own demons.

I could've lived without the sister. The one liners and comedy are a mixed bag.

    There's actually no music in Dracula. It is famous for having NO Soundtrack. The only use of music is during the opening credits and then it uses the classical musical piece "Swan Lake" by Tchaikovsky. You should have used the example of later Universal horror films instead. Otherwise, you are quite right. Alfred Hitchcock was a master, and it was nice of you to point out Tarantino's mistake as well. Quentin Tarantino is extremely overrated as a director.

    I'm not really a great fan of Hitchcock for the reason that I find him what I would call a "Surface director." His films don't go deep, except for "Vertigo." But I do like all of his films and watch them all as he is the maser of suspense. Some of his films IMO suffer from not the best scripts e.g."Vertigo" got too convoluted I think. He lost what might have been any spontaneity because of rewrites because he couldn't find a screenwriter to fulfill his vision for it ( so I read. ) But it's got its own unique appeal. I think the film might have benefited from a little more of what "The Three faces Of Eve" has got ( although Two Faces in Kim Novak's case! ) One I like possibly better than all the others is "Jamaica Inn" but he had magnificent Charles Laughton ( but most don't agree with me so..? ) I thought "Rear Window" was shot in a manner that was too shallow but "The Birds" maintains its fascination although even there I thought the characterization could have gone a little deeper about the mother complex hinted at in Rod Taylor. But that's just my taste. He had his vision, as you have pointed out. "Psycho" is a bit the same - sort of "surface " all the way except the coda but it's interesting for me because Vera Miles is my favorite actress. Very enjoyable listening to you and how you see Alfred Hitchcock. I like "The Wrong Man" not only because it is one of Vera's best performances Hitchcock got out of her but the law side is interesting and I like the B&W aspect. I read where Hitchcock said he was influenced by two films - "The Ghost and Mrs. Muir" ( think it was 1953? ) and "Portrait of Jennie" ( 1948 ) re the Carlotta part in "Vertigo." If that's true I think a better sense of mystery in the texture of the film would have helped in parts. It was too concrete for me. Thanks. "Strangers On A train" was getting into the deep realm of the mind. That's one of his best for me.Best Wishes. Stimulating listening and watching your video.
