Attention U.S. TCM Subscribers: Like some of those motion pictures already recommended this month, Vertigo is another film that contentiously divides both experts and fans alike as to whether it should be included in the film noir category. Listing it as noir are the following: Film Noir Encyclopedia 4th Ed. (Silver, Ward, et al. '10), Dark City (Selby, '84), Historical Dictionary of Film Noir (Spicer, '10), Film Noir Guide (Keaney, '03), and Film Noir: Films of Trust and Betrayal (Duncan, ’02). For myself, I consider Vertigo *not* to be noir, the reasons for which are explained toward the latter part of my extensive review (meant for those who have seen the film), below. Either way, Vertigo is loaded with a wealth of multi-faceted insights and hidden rumination on human relationships. Viewers can enrich their lives on Wednesday, November 15 at 5pm PST. http://thecinemacafe.com/the-cinema-treasure-hunter/2015/4/20/2p34ptic1r8c177xr7iyi47v2aum8s
