ano atípico, marcado pela minha mudança de morada: 72 filmes no cinema, 54 em casa. apesar de algumas péssimas estreias nas salas de cinema, o ano foi salvo pela descoberta de alguns clássicos no ecran de 13 polegadas que me acompanha e quase ter completado a filmografia de hitchcock.

[vertigo ~ alfred hithchock, 1958]

She turns away and wanders into the room toward the window. She sits down in the chair to think it over, looking straight at her, then suddenly reaches out and snaps off the light.
JUDY (Frightened): Listen, what’d you do that for?!?! She starts to rise.
SCOTTIE (Quickly): No, Judy, I’m not going to move!Please! Stay in the chair!
JUDY: Why?!
SCOTTIE: Please! And don’t look at me.
She subsides in the chair, and obeys, looking straight ahead again, holding very still, apprehensive. The only light in the room is from the street lamp outside, and it silhouettes Judy in profile, robbing her of hair-color, robbing her of makeup, and Scottie stares across at her, unsure, wishing he could persuade himself.
SCOTTIE (Softly): Will you, Judy?

He races after her and catches her and holds her, and she is against him, clinging tightly, deep in his embrace, and sobbing fiercely.
MADELEINE (Muffled, against his breast): I’m not mad. I’m not mad. And I don’t want to die, but there’s someone inside me, there’s a somebody else, and she says I must die… Scottie,don’t let me go!
SCOTTIE: I’m here, I’ve got you…
MADELEINE:I’m so afraid…(She looks up)…you won’t let it happen…
Her face is close to his and they are clinging tightly together. He shakes his head, and then suddenly his mouth is on hers, and they are deep in a kiss. Their lips part, but remain close together.
MADELEINE(Whispering): Don’t leave me… stay with me…
SCOTTIE: All the time.
They kiss again, passionately. And the wind blows and the waves dash against the rocks, throwing up a curtain of spray.

From his viewpoint, we see Madeleine standing at the waters’edge. She is mechanically tearing off the lace-edged paper from the nosegay. Scottie watching her curiously. Madeleine lets the paper drift away down to the water. She proceeds to unwind the wire around the flowers and begins to scatter them an the water. Scottie watching Madeleine.The full figure of Madeleine, scattering the rest of the flowers. Then she raises her head and stares up at the sky. A moment in which her body seem poised, and then she is gone, lost to view in the water. Scottie dashes around the wall and the camara pans him to the water’s edge. He is throwing his coat off. Shooting down into the water, we see Madeleine’s upturned face as she floats away. She disappears now and again. Scottie running down the few stone steps towards the water. When the water is up to his knees, he swims out towards her. Her eyes staring, sinks beneath the water. She is surrounded by the scattered flowers. Scottie swims in and grabs her.As he holds her, the two heads are pressed together. He turns and starts to swim back with her. The screen is filled with their two heads. Madeleine’s staring eyes begin to close as she is moved away.
