Abstract (en)

Discusses Hitchcock's film Vertigo, noting the central importance of painterly aesthetics in the film (notes John Ferren's role in painting the work that motivates the action), much of the movie's atmosphere deriving from the art of Salvador Dalí and Giorgio de Chirico, and its color sense from Kandinsky, Franz Marc, and Paul Klee.
