I doubt Cassie is worried about views at this point. Any idea how many Patreon supporters she has?

In the thousands I think.

It does well by adding depth and pulling in a growing group of people who realize mainstream contemporary cinema is running on empty.

Cassie's range of content and her genuine love of good storytelling- young or old- is why her channel has grown so remarkably.

@@thomasrenton4499I just checked. She has over 4,000. So if they were all at the lower tier that adds up to 12k per month before patreon takes their cut! Not bad.

He also liked that idea of an ice maiden. Brunettes for him were naturally sultry

Just your opinion, but right on the money. I know that's the main reason I love this channel. She allows herself to become immersed in the material and is completely uncynical. Doesn't mean she likes every film -- and there's just no way she could or should -- but there is a difference between cynicism, and simply not liking something. Which is a long-winded way of saying she, and her sister, are very genuine in their reactions.

Yeah I like watching Cassie when it's an older film like Hitchcock because her reactions are exactly how I feel the audience would have reacted when it first came out . To not be tainted by today's standards of cgi reused plot lines

I absolutely agree Cassie is completely and utterly 100% within the movie whatever movie that it happens to be. And I absolutely adore the confused Cassie reactions- I get such a kick out of those, this one included. I only wished that she knew how the confused Cassie reactions have well at least brought to me light hearted laughter which at this point in my life and with everything I have going on and losses incurred it just means a great deal and is so very much appreciated .

I COULDN'T SAY IT BETTER !

You and a handful of other reactors let the films unfold without constantly inserting historical, personal or trivial digressions unrelated to what's happening on the screen. Thank you.

Think that personified what 'stunned silence' is. Lol.

I was looking at the screen asking “you okay? You gonna be okay” over and over

I really appreciate that you let the camera run on your shocked non moving raction for a considerable time, then WHAT? Explodes out of you. That is a remarkably honest reaction and we subscriber's love you for that honesty. You go girl. Watch this movie again after reading some analysis of it. It pays to see it again knowing the basic plot. Now you can enjoy the hints and suggestions the movie offers along the way. Hitchcock can be seen in the opening walking with a metal lunch box before Scotty meets up with Gavin for the first visit. So many great films to see. I recommend The Seven Samurai which is the film The Magnificent Seven is based on. Akira Kurasawa director. Invented several now standardized camera techniques. Also, it is obligatory to see Citizen Kane by Orson Wells and Gold Rush by Char Ie Chaplin...great directors, great actors. Also, I recommend The Cotton Club for great big band music, great dancing, great gangster/love story. Trust me, you will LOVE it.

It really is gorgeous, isn't it? I was lucky enough to see it on a movie screen when a local cinema held a Hitchcock festival.

I watched it probably way earlier than I was supposed to as I was still too young to understand half of it, but to this day it remains my favourite Hitchcock film. And I just love Kim Novak, the ending was so heartbreaking. One part that still stuck with me even though I haven't rewatched it in years was her looking at the tree rings saying 'this is when I was born - and this is when I died'. It sent shivers down my spine each time.

I've got the 4K disc and it looks incredible.

Really makes San Francisco look beautiful. It's kind of a fitting setting for some of the movies themes...a beautiful postcard with a dark gritty underbelly.

They've done a fantastic job of the restoration. It's a real window into 1950s America, like a time machine.

You know Bernard Herrmann's daughter? Very cool.

Hi. Your friend's dad was Bernard Hermann?

Holy Smokes!! Dorothy's dad is a LEGEND. Bernard Herrmann is one of the truly great film composers of all-time.

This movie was not voted best movie of all time for nothing. And Bernard Herrmann wrote his best score bar none for this movie.

@@risingbull84 yes.

Yeah, casting Jimmy Stewart was pure genius. He is so humble and likable that it takes a surprisingly long time for you to realize his character is a complete scumbag. Jimmy Stewart dragging Judy up the stairs and screaming in her face would not have the same effect with an actor known to be dangerous. Stewart is so sweet in everything else that it makes him all the more shocking here.

A great performance by Stewart, America's every man, playing against type.

@@ericjohnson9623 I disagree on complete scumbag. He was angry and obsessed, that's why he stepped over the line in the tower and treated Judy weirdly, but it wasn't his normal behavior. Judy on the other hand should have had no problem dressing up as Madeline on Jimmy's demands because she already did so on purpose when she was helping the murderer to kill his victim. So if anyone was a scumbag it was Judy and the murderer. But no worries, it's all entertainment only.

@fu6817 Entertainment indeed, no worries! I won't deny that Judy is in fact worse, being an accomplise to murder and all, but let's pretend Judy was just some random girl and not the same woman disguised as Madelaine Elster. He treats her like garbage, inserting himself in her life and changing every aspect of her from her job to lifestyle to clothes to hair for his own selfish reasons. Everything unique about Judy is consumed in the passionate fires of resurrecting Madelaine.

@@ericjohnson9623 He fell in love with a woman, then watched her die, then was accused of being the reason she died, and had a mental breakdown. Then he got out and saw her again, found out it was actually the woman he had been seeing and had been framed, then snapped again. That makes him a "scumbag"?

Judy is more than an accessory. She is a co-conspirator. She knows what Elster is planning to do, but doesn't figure on him dumping her. Scotty Ferguson is an accessory, after he catches on to Judy's deception. Elster played both of them. Scotty won't get sent up for Judy's murder. The nun saw her trip and fall backwards, and she is a witness.

Kim Novak was never considered a great actress, but you're right that she is perfect in this dual role, utterly convincing. For me, that's another of Alfred Hitchcock's many strengths, that he could take normal, fairly pedestrian performers and somehow have them deliver the best work they ever did in any movie.

I honestly don't know they are the same person, I had to look up wiki to see both are played by Kim. I don't know why they look so different 😮

SURE, sure, he certainly illustrated the best of her !@@michaelt6218

I was going to suggest Bell Book and Candle as well. It features Stewart and Novak in a suypernatural romcom with an ending I think you will enjoy much better.

YES!!! Even Carly will love this one for Halloween. 😍😍

Kim Novak in Bell, Book & Candle was absolutely knockout gorgeous.

YESSSS!!!!!!!

And Jack Lemmon!

Wish they would have gave us more of Scotty's backstory...why he seemed so broken. My impression watching was some severe mommy issues...but they didn't really touch on that.

Very true.

I agree with your placing Shutter island in the same basket ! So do I for these 2 movies !

@@BarryHart-xo1oy You're not Sigmund Freud to support that !

It's ridiculously slow for a thriller.

My least favorite. Tried watching it again recently and it's just disappointing for me. It feels like something made by a poser who thinks he can do a Hitchcock movie.

I was 15 when Vertigo was on in 1959 in paris (France) so I went with my parents who were moviegoers and in particulmar good films ! And we had already seen the previous Hitchcock movies ! This one came a a big shot for me !

@@davidz3879 It is NOT a thriller ! and you repeat this sentence everywhere ! Do you have just ONE neuron?

Just reading that put some hair on my chest.

He flew his last mission on 20 February 1966, in Vietnam.

Jimmy Stewart is a _Vietnam veteran_ as well ! (had known he was a Second World War vet~)

He also suffered PTSD afterwards which meant he could act the part of a mentally distressed and tormented person very well.

He was promoted to command the squadron he was in -- mostly an administrative role -- but continued to fly missions as co-pilot. He even flew pathfinder missions -- where the bomber is the first one over the target, has to circle nearby until all the planes have made their run, and are painted in bright, contrasting colors to make them easy for other pilots (and anti-air gunners) to see.

The movie should have included the Gene Pitney song The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence as the final credits rolled.

Very definitely one to watch.

A Jimmy Stewart movie I think she would really like is Harvey, it's one of his most popular movies, but sadly for some reason, I see very few reactions to it.

Yes! I think she should watch it as soon as possible. It's fantastic!

John Wayne’s most heroic role. Tom Doniphon gives up everything for the woman he loves so much so that nobody even knows who he is at his death. It’s heartbreaking. Five stars!!!

Also, free on KZfaq right now...

I like To Catch a Thief, but as charming as Cary Grant is, pairing then 51 y/o Grant up with 26 y/o Grace Kelly just looked ridiculous. To make it worse, Jessie Landis, who played Kelly's widowed mother, was close in age to Grant and was attractive and charismatic...Grant and Landis would have made a much more believable couple!

@@aarons4376 but there would be no movie !

Cassie has to see The Philadelphia Story. She'd love it.

i don(t think so..@@rabbitandcrow

Fun Fact: There was an alternate ending, in which it showed Midge at her apartment, listening to a radio report (voiced by San Francisco TV reporter Dave McElhatton) describing the pursuit of Gavin Elster across Europe. Midge switches the radio off when Scottie enters the room. They then share a drink and look out of the window in silence. This tag ending had originally been demanded by Geoffrey Shurlock of the U.S. Production Code Administration, who had noted: "It will, of course, be most important that the indication that Elster will be brought back for trial is sufficiently emphasized." Hitchcock finally succeeded in fending off most of Shurlock's demands (which included toning down erotic allusions) and had the alternative ending dropped.

Except for the ledge escape. I always imagined Hitch did that on purpose to make us think Scottie may be having a mental breakdown, along with the hotel spot where the older lady stated Carlota Valdez had not been there.

@@MrRondonmon Not sure what the ledge escape issue is. I feel like the hotel scene is merely there to add to the general sense of disorientation in the film since I feel like that's one of the main motifs of the film and also symbolic of Scottie's vertigo. Just like the drawn-out scene of Scottie driving in circles as he follows Madeleine/Judy.

@@darrenkane2109 Well, to start the film he is hanging on a ledge, then the cop falls to his death, and we cut to Scottie who is now OK. How did he get out of that predicament? I think Hitch leaves things like that untold to make one wonder, is he the one going crazy instead of her et al. He tries to use subterfuge to trick the mind, it ads suspense also.

Too bad it's not flawless in its storytelling, lol.

@@TTM9691 we will have to agree and disagree on that.

Well, that would not be my take on it. Scottie says to Judy on the stairs going up to the tower. That the slip was the necklace as he remembered the necklace. This is the only time he connected the dots. 'To note. He said “He made you over just like I made you over,” referring to Gavin Elster. So this was nothing about gathering clues by a detective. He even told her, "it was too late theres' no bringing her back". 'Cus Scottie realise, that he had been trying to mold her back into the image that was created by Elster, which were all just an illusion. His detective skills are very poorly as he could not see what was happening before the necklace reappeared.

@@no288 Like I wrote, subconsciously he was putting all the pieces together. His nightmare showed he knew something was wrong, he was putting it all together, he just didn't know he was doing it till it all clicked for him.

Cassie didn't give enough accountability to her for being complicit in the murder, the elaborate planning and deception, and destroying Scottie's life. Cassie sympathized more with her as a woman and was more concerned about his creepiness than her being accomplice to murder. She didn't love him, she was going on with her life while he was in the mental hospital. It was just chance that he saw her and then probably more her guilt that kept her from running, and her guilt that had her thinking she saw a ghost at the end and falling off.

It can be hard to separate the story from Hitchcock himself sometimes. The more you learn about him and his predilections...the more you see him in Scotty.

There's no out-and-out good person in the film, there's something voyeuristic about Scotty (beyond being a detective) and the creepy dressing scenes to me come full circle from the hinted at undressing of Madeline earlier in the film (after the fall into the river). Even his friend Midge has a jealous and controlling side as seen before and after Scotty's breakdown. *This is a Hitchcock film I come back to every so often and pick up another detail each time.

If only it could all be wrapped up that easily.

That’s not at all in the alternate ending. Scotty is in a mental hospital and Midge comes to tend to him.

I'm not convinced that the Nun was there at all. I think Scotty pushed her.

Midge needs to take off those glasses and glam herself up. Otherwise she'll never break out of Scottie's friendzone.

Me, I think Midge needs to leave her obsession behind and give up any hope of catching Scotty/ Johnny O. I believe she's better off without him. Everyone else who try to help him end up deceased. (Cop beginning of movie, Judy) When I watch this, I have to keep telling myself, Scotty's not Jimmy Stewart. Great casting by Hitchcock.

She was lovely in that

😉

Lol… Here’s your paper!..

She's now seen the 5 main films referenced in High Anxiety; I think she's ready.

I think she needs to watch Spellbound before High Anxiety...

Cloris Leachman as Nurse Diesel was worth the price of admission.

Yep, he was a bomber pilot who flew bombing runs over Nazi Germany. Decorated for his bravery. He stayed in the Air Force reserve into old age. RIP Mr. Stewart.

It's far too slow for a thriller.

Is there a rule saying that thrillers have to be fast ?????????@@andrewq159

@@Fanfanbalibar All thrillers are meant to be fast-moving.

​@@andrewq159Only for those with short attention spans

Not one of Hitchcock's best, and especially for Cassie, it's a no-brainer if you want a Hitchcock with Ingrid Bergman: Notorious. For obvious reasons. "Spellbound" is way down on the list and Hitchcock didn't even have control over it, they cut out all his Dali sequences, it's a mutilated film. Anyways, Spellbound will never win a poll and that's how she picks 'em. She'd have to watch a LOT of Hitchcock films before "Spellbound" would win.

@@TTM9691 I second the motion for 'Notorious'.

I third the motion for Notorious. Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman in black and white, script by Ben Hecht, directed by Hitchcock. Simply unbeatable.

I love Spellbound, it's not flawless, but it's a fun movie. What's also interesting that it's overturning the damsel in distress trope by making a man (young Gregory Peck!) the male 'damsel' that Ingrid Bergman constantly has to rescue. An early feminist film, if you ask me.

CASABLANCA ISN'T A HITCH MOVIE ! PLAY IT AGAIN, SAM !!!!!!

She would have deserved a prize for that !

well said. Kind of the synopsis I was looking for. Thank you.

He's not guilty of Judy's death.

He's also a bit controlling of Midge. She's obviously so in love with him and he takes advantage of that and at times toys with it.

Guys, don't forget Judy was in on the plot to bump off the rich guy's wife!

There's so much symbolism, I didn't even think about Madeleine's name. While watching Cassie's reaction I did think about the fact that perhaps Scottie having multiple names was a way to add to the general sense of disorientation of the film, or maybe it was a way to symbolize the two very different sides of Scottie we see in the storyline. I feel like Vertigo is not only his most person work but also the movie he put the most forethought into. I think the reason he sort of downplayed the movie and didn't talk about it much is because he was heartbroken about the way it was poorly received in its time which is a damn shame.

Yeah I literally didn't realize it was the same actress the first time I saw this. She gave a great performance.

@@ct6852 Super great ! As a moviegoer all my life, I cannot think of any dual role played by the same actor/actress so good as this one !

The key to understanding the ambiguous ending is in the title. What is "vertigo"? It's a false perception of the world caused by fear; the world isn't spinning, but Jimmy Stewart perceives that it is. There are clues in the movie, especially in Act 3, that the movie takes places from Jimmy Stewart's point of view, and you're not seeing events as they actually are, but as he perceives them.

There is an even more silly but also very fun Hitchcock movie: Family Plot.

I especially like the lighting change in the bookshop when they are talking to Pop Zweibel. At the end it gets SUPER dim and the 1st time I watched this (on a VHS) I thought the film was damaged! Then Scottie and Midge walk outside and a reverse shot shows Pop turn on the lights! The sun had just went down! So subtle. And of course the amazing filters in the cemetery and Judy’s room at the Empire Hotel. Just amazing.

Kim's green dress against that red wallpaper is really beautiful. Curious if the flower bouquets mean anything?

It just is because it looks like the one the woman portrayed as Carlotta Valdes in the museum has the same !@@ct6852

'The Girl' and 'Hitchcock' are great companion pieces to Vertigo.

Rope's also an experiment in trying to simulate 1 unbroken cut, a single scene throughout the entire movie. Actually filming that long was effectively impossible, he uses shadows, people stepping in front the view act as places they stitch 2 scenes together.

I think Vertigo is technically Hitchcock's best film but Rope is also my personal favourite

Rope is a horrifying film! Poor Cassie LOL

Keep away from ROPE, Cassie. It's an ugly, unpleasant movie that will provoke a bad reaction from you. It's not for you. If you watch it, you will regret it. At best you won't like it. At worst, it will hurt you.

@@carlopanno6307 she does her best work when she's suffering

Why was it almost ignored for many years, taking decades to be widely considered to be a great film?

Wasn't she also the original Blanche Dubois on Broadway?

What was the deal with that painting? I didn't get it.

@@ahad2k11 Midge copied the Carlotta Valdes painting from the museum, but painted her own face on it. It was intended both as a joke and as a way of drawing Scottie's attention away from Madeleine and back to her. Scottie didn't take kindly to the effort, to say the least.

@@Venejan He suffered from that "joke" ! look at his face when he leaves !

That delayed reaction was hilarious!

I think it's more than fear of "Criminal exposure": We can sum it up with 2 words: "Passive-Aggressive Behavior" That describes why Judy didn't "Just tell him". I loved how Cassie @popcorninbed kept saying 'Why doesn't she just tell him?" Remember this is the 50s. But the decade is also a little beside the point.... how many times did the Deshaun watson female accusers not only NOT TELL Deshaun they didn't like something - but they claimed years later they were "victims of sexual assault" and yet they never "told anyone" , they never "Filed formal reports".?? Pretty much EVERY SINGLE ONE of the 60 or so accusers against Watson NEVER FILED A REPORT. We are living in a world where people have such a big problem with telling others - they don't have the courage often times. They never "told anyone" Passive- Aggressive behavior. This is SO WIDELY accepted as normal behavior for girls that sometimes women do it without thinking about it - they just fall into this terrible habit of not communicating ..... they just hope that they can "signal hints" and give hints and hope people "take the hint" HELLO!!!!!!! Wake up people. !!!! It's the 21st Century: Time for men but especially women who are into these old habits of passive aggressive behavior to STOP hinting and start articulating - CLEARLY communicating!!! And don't wait for someone to drag you up to the "bell tower" and get angry: That's exactly what Scotty had to do in this movie to get Judy to tell him the truth: TELL HIM AT DINNER.... then you won't be out "on the ledge' and then dying from a fall off a cliff or whatever. I had a problem with a young woman when I was like 23. This was over 20 years ago. She was about 20. She just wouldn't tell me for months what the truth was about her ... until I ran around driving for hundreds of miles, doing my own "investigation" kind of like Scotty in this movie - and then I figured out what the truth really was. That girl could have saved me a ton of time and energy by simply being forthright, honest, - not just to me but with herself. Instead she fell back on the old adage 6 or more months after we met, she wrote me things like "I was hoping you would take the hint" STOP GIVING HINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Start communicating clearly - and you don't have to shout or be rude or mean. You can do it in a smooth way. THAT"S why we graduate from high school and then go off to college and get fancy degrees - that's why we take grammar and English writing classes - so we can use our language arts skills to communicate with each other..... NOT GIVE HINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Of course by now I can spot the signs of people who behave like that girl - I spot that a lot quicker and a see it years in advance now. But I should not have had to go through that. And it's people like that who give other females or others a bad name - it ruins the interpersonal experience for everybody by making the world more cynical and less trusting. During that time in my 20s, I had a friend from college. She also went to my grad school. She told me one day "Women are more passive-aggressive than guys.... When I was in a college sorority, those girls were always getting into cat fights with each other ... and their behavior was so fake. They would say hi to each other walking by in the hall and then sit down at lunch and rip each other to shreds behind each other's backs" "Men just confront - they may yell and even fight but then they let it out and a day or a few hours later it's all fine." That's what Nicole told me and she was right. A few years later I took my first psychology class. In class the professor, a PHD, was talking about "passive-aggressive communication" When I started quoting Nicole, the professor started nodding her head and she said "Yes, class: that is Passive Aggressive behavior. And yes, psychologists have noted for decades that this is more widely prevalent among women than men" Though sure it can happen with men. Let's stop or really try to reduce this passive aggressive behavior: It's the 21st Century now WOmen are obviously a huge part of the professional working world - and passive aggressive behavior just should not be accepted anymore- not with all the means of communication we have (tools like Skype, Cell phones, Business Cells, emails etc) There are so many platforms to communicate to people now - TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, YouTUbe, Email, Text, Facetime etc etc. USE ONE OF THEM and tell people in your life what the truth is: If you wanna break up, tell the person. And stop using "Im afraid he'll hurt me" as an excuse. IF that's the case then tell an authority. Don't sit around taking a shower washing your hair and then keeping it all inside until it boils over in some frustration.

This and Nightmare on Elm Street reactions might be her longest 'stunned silence'. Lol.

After seeing TO CATCH numerous times, John Williams and Jessie Royce Landis fill some of my favorite scenes. "Mother! You're reading the book upside down!" TO CATCH A THIEF might be The Perfect Hitchcock Antidate, come to think of it... it's funny, witty, clever, with twists AND an ending where Cary Grant gives A Look comparable to the horror-filled Norman Bates stare at the end. It is SO perfect.

SOME OF US WERE BORN MUCH, MUCH MORE PRIOR TO YOU , SO HITHC AND HIS MOVIES ARE IN OUR TREASURE BOXES !

I was born in the middle of the 60s so Hitchcock and older movies were something I had to discover as I got older much like Cassie is doing now.

OR BOTH, DEPENDING ON .......

Does feel like something that slipped through the cracks of the 50's. Surface level it's very clean and bright with the colors...but it's really weird, too. Hitch was always a bit ahead of the curve in a lot of ways.

And most famously I'd argue - Spielberg uses it in "Jaws"

Actually it represents Madeline's ghost.

@@gsherlock At this time, green mists were generally associated with ghosts and the spooky. Hitchcock wanted the audience to buy the McGuffin ghost story, so he used this movie trope to subconsciously send a message to the audiences of that time. Nowadays, video effects are much more elaborate and the connection is not as obvious to modern audiences. But then Hitchcocks takes the colour association and runs with it, builds upon it. It all culminates in the totally one-sided Scene d'Amour, where Judy appears from a green mist - "From Among the Dead", as the original title of the novel has it.

Triple whammy is right, creatively, but it's funny to think that Vertigo almost destroyed his career commercially, North By Northwest won it back, and Psycho was expected to be the final nail in his coffin but instead immortalized him.

@@adamwarlock1 yes just goes to prove how utterly clueless contemporary critics usually are ☺

Cassie observed that Gavin Elster (or rather Tom Helmore, the actor) had the same accent as Cary Grant.
