      Kim? They originally had another woman for the role, but she got pregnant. So-out of a strange Freudian spite-Hitchcock punished her by replacing her with Kim Novak, humiliating her on the set of Psycho and forcing her out of the film industry forever.

    Herrmann's scoring for the dialogue between Stewart and Novak is unparalleled in its unrestrained romanticism. The quiet scene is superbly enhanced by the rapturous quality of his music. This scene and the later moment of Madeleine's transformation are among the film's most compelling and Herrmann deserves so much credit for his contribution. The Hitchcock/Herrmann collaboration yielded many fine films but I believe Vertigo was their greatest achievement.

    One of my favorite scenes in any film. Everything from the performances to the dialogue to the camera movements and compositions to the luscious cinematography and that incredibly beautiful score by Bernard Herrmann...it all blends smoothly and excellently. And everything before and after this scene is superb as well. Such an extraordinary film.

    • @persiandrum9871

      Yes, it's one of the most touching and impacting scenes in the film. Herrmann's score in this scene is sublime; Ms Novak's understated performance is perfect and the whole ambience for the scene is pretty special. Everything came together in this film --- the story, the aesthetics and style of the era, and the director's grasp of this craft.

    Kim Novak was never lovelier than in this movie, just gorgeous. Something very sexy about the interaction between them here, both watching each other so intently. She's like a beautiful exotic animal that, by some miracle, he got back to his apartment, he can't take his eyes off her and she regards him with wariness. Wonderful!

    • @suzannemoogan9675
      @suzannemoogan9675 6 років тому +6

      glamdolly20 I agree the attraction between them is electric in this movie, however, it didn't make Hitchcock appreciate them any the more, even after they both gave phenomenonal performances in Vertigo, the movie was a box office flop, he gave them both the sack and had the cheek as an obese ugly little git to tell Jimmy he was too old at 50 to have played Scottie and women didn't find him desirable and he would never hire him again, total pig!!.
      I fancied Jimmy in this , I can't take my eyes off Jimmy, I don't like older men as a rule
      I am 43,however, I never could take my eyes of Jimmy, a young Gary Cooper and young Peter o'toole.
      Jimmy was gorgeous when he was younger plus I am obsessed by men 6ft2 plus, I am tallish almost 5ft10 barefoot.
      Kim was very beautiful in all her movies however her beauty
      evident on a documentary made on her life in the fifties on youtube
      where she is wearing no makeup, she had prominent cheekbones which isn't so evident in this scene her face is too padded with heavy makeup, her face shape is diamond I think.
      Mine is a regular heart with widows peak identical to Vivien Leigh's when she was younger both face types have very high prominent cheekbones, however heart faces have a slightly sweeter and younger look to them than diamond faces..
      I think Kim has my eye shape almond upturned at least they looked like that here,
      The studio here has her eyebrows slightly too high to be flattering to her bone structure.
      God only knows why such a beautiful woman had so much cosmetic surgery, botched surgery at that, shows how insecure , Hollywood studios make older actors feel..

    There's a lot of reasons this film is now considered to be the best ever made, and this scene is one of those reasons. This is a scene best appreciated upon a second (or 100th) viewing of Vertigo, when the viewer knows that Scotty is being manipulated by Judy. That said, this is the movie's best scene, IMHO- her beauty, the music- especially the music, and the viewer's curiosity (wait...he must have seen everything. right?) are simply riveting. Did Mr Hitchcock know at the time he was creating the best picture ever filmed?

    • @glamdolly30
      @glamdolly30 Рік тому +3

      No one ever knows they are creating their best work at the time - if you had that level of self regard, you couldn't produce great work!
      And in reality, such judgements can only accurately be made many years later, with sufficient perspective.
      There is something magical about this movie. Its individual parts are all top quality - and yet 'Vertigo's final effect on viewers is so much more than the sum of its parts. Its impossible to put its power into words. It's one of the most mesmeric and affecting movies ever made.

    It's interesting watching Kim Novak's reaction (0:22) when she realizes that the James Stewart character has seen her nude. It seems, also, that James Stewart's character realizes that she realizes this fact and he plays this "creepiness" in a very subtle way. The credit should not only go to the two actors, but to Alfred Hitchcock's direction as well. It's just too bad this movie did not do well in the 1950's. I suppose this movie was a bit much for mainstream, American audiences.

      SPOILER ALERT IF YOU HAVEN"T SEEN THE MOVIE -- Zoltan, don't forget this whole incident is a set up. Later she confirms that she is "an excellent swimmer" and all the murmurings about Carlotta when she is supposedly semi-conscious are BS. She doesn't "realize" he's seen her naked. She knows it, and she uses it.

      I also noticed PEOPLE magazine on the coffee table. The PEOPLE that is around now started in the 1970's, maybe 1973. Either there was an earlier magazine with the same name or the one on the table was just a prop, a non-existent magazine, created for the movie set. This is a guess but maybe having real magazines would have caused complications and also dated the movie. The other magazine on the table is VIEWS & NEWS. I was born in 1961, shortly after this movie was made, and I have no recollection of such a magazine during the years I was growing up. I think what we see in this scene are not real periodicals though a real magazine years later had and has one of those names.

  • @jackmorrison7379
    @jackmorrison7379 6 років тому +10

    Why didn't this film appeal to audiences of the 50's? First, the plot is complex and not straightforward. The two major characters have flaws either of health (vertigo and a stay in a mental hospital) or deceit and duplicity. Despite the travelogue film sites, nothing much happens. Until the end you think it involved suicide and depression or other mental disease on the part of Madeline. Mental illness (even when faked as with Madeline/Judy) is a subplot of this movie and that was difficult (and even now it still is so) for movie audiences.
    Then there is the age difference which was viable and believable four years earlier in Hitch's "Rear Window" with the future Princess of Monaco and Jimmy but less so here where at least to me he looks like her Uncle or a youngish Dad and not a possible lover. Perhaps the fedora and square suits of the 50's simply enhance his older status.
    Don't get me wrong. For film buffs and film school types "Vertigo" is quite an achievement. But much of what makes it great, the score, the cinematography, the direction probably went over the head of most audiences then. I still remember my parents reaction to the film years later when shown on TV in the late 60's. Weird and unsettling was their verdict.

      @vivianpowell1732 4 роки тому +2

      You had to see this movie at least twice in order to figure out the plot. Moviegoers in the 1950s didn't often have that opportunity because movies only stayed in local theaters a short time, and of course there were no DVDs or cable movie channels in the 1950s to provide the opportunity for multiple viewings.
      So that could be a reason why "Vertigo" was considered to be a box-office flop after its first release. Very few patrons "got it" back then.

I'm left-handed myself and also a distant cousin of Kim Novak (we've never met though) and I'm glad that people have finally learned that there is nothing wrong with not being right-handed. I had also noticed Kim Novak writing with her left hand and, as I recall, in "Sense and Sensibility", Emma Thompson was writing with her left hand.

      I agree. I agree with you totally. I thought that with that kind of music, it would emphasize her presence in this film, her impact, that this woman is SPECIAL. She's important. Just now, I'm thinking maybe she doesn't need the music after all. At that time, I thought she did. All she had to do was show up and BANG! She owned the screen. I would never make this thing a comedy, at least not like that, not without making sure the audience knew what this story was all about, what it was leading to. I would never intentionally turn it into garbage. When I suggested music, I was thinking dramatically or at least, I was trying to.

      Keith Evers It's all good. 'This woman is special' sums it up. We're all on the same page I think. You were just expressing how it made you feel when she appeared. When a beautiful woman owns the screen, bells and whistles go off....
