Vertigo (the 1958 movie)
Alfred Hitchcock was famous for directing films of the suspense/horror genre. One of his most famous movies was the 1958 thriller, Vertigo. This motion picture concerned a detective with a fear of heights who grew to love a lady who then jumped or fell to her death. After this happened, he met another woman who eerily resembled the first doomed one.
