Vertigo
(Critique)
Another magnificent job by Alfred Hitchcock on the 1958 film Vertigo. A San Francisco detective suffering from vertigo investigates the strange activities of an old friend's wife, all the while becoming dangerously obsessed with her.
The scenery of the film was dark just like Rear Window where all you see is the light from where the camera is shining on. A couple of the scenes looked fake, as if it were paste. Maybe, because of the age of the film but a lot of the camera shots looked blur, it was hard to make things out. But then again the blurriness showed a peaceful state in the characters.
The costumes was like Scarface, it fit the time period of the mid to late 50s.
The music/ sound effects was well put together. Hitchcock is well known for his thriller and mystery films and thats what this film consist of. The suspense in the music went well. Sometimes it made it seems more dramatic then it really was but it did keep the movie going and had everybody interested throughout the film.

Syriana is an exciting thriller that's all the more suspenseful because it entrench in real- world issues. Director Stephen Gaghan explores the subject of America's dependence on foreign oil through a complicated jump from the Persian Gulf to Washington to Europe while establishing connection between corporations, governments and terrorists.

Cinematography is not my cup of tea. At first I was confused(still am) in this class but with the help of my classmates I manage to get through some of my assignments. So thank you.
