This documentary is incredibly informative, both about the movie Vertigo and the restoration in 1996. Two small complaints:
- The restorers are some of the most unitnteresting people on the face of
the earth.- The use of the spiral effect in the opening sequence of the documentary
is just way too cheap of a rip-off of the original movie. It was not necessary at all. All those small things a side, this is required viewing for any Hitchcock buff or any lover of movies.
