Watching the great movie on a restored 70 mm screen is an experience I have always looked forward to. My sole experience of watching Hitchcock movies was with faded prints and deteriorating videos. Though it is also an enthralling experience of its own kind but watching the movie like Hitchcock intended it to be watched is what I craved to get lost in.

Hitchcock's films with Vertigo in particular have forced the critics to declare it as a Master of Suspense movies by A Master of suspense novels, Hitchcock. He has influenced many film makers like Martin Scorsese and Brian DePalma. His film making tricks such as the black and white projection and camera tricks have led many film makers to incorporate the same in their own creations except the fact that the original has rarely been equaled. He often uses zooming in and tracking out simultaneously to increase suspense and draw the audience deeper into the story. The way the movie has been made puts the director in the limelight.If we observe the plot of the movie through a contemporary point of view, certain things might seem a little out of context like the way women and the justice system is looked at. Otherwise, the film is as good in today's context as it was 40 years ago. It may have been made for a different audience, but it excites us till date and helps in keeping the movie in an historic light. The movie is definitely a "must watch", something that you should sit back and get engrossed in with your family and friends. This serves as a good chance too, to appreciate the past in the present scenario.
