Today we talked about   Vertigo 

We also talked about:

The Score by Bernard Herrmann for Vertigo and Psycho 

The Jimmy Stewart / Hitchcock movies:

• Rope
• Rear Window
• and even The Man Who Knew Too Much 
• (Hitchcock had licensed the entire book from GK Chesterton. It's too bad he only used the title instead of using the story... twice.) 

A couple other Hitchcock Movies

• Notorious
• Psycho

The Iliad

Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho by Stephen Rebello

Hitchcock

A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood

OK, I know the U2 song is not about the movie, but the video seems to really like the Sal Bass stuff.

Next class is 1977 Star Wars (1977 NOT an updated version )

•  This is the trailer and theme to Kings Row
• This is the Flash Gordon serial. (It would have played in episodes before the main feature each week. This is all the episodes edited together to make one movie)
• This is a musician explaining the influence of "The Planets" on "Star Wars"
• Here is "The Planets"
• Here is the original trailer introducing the world to  Star Wars
