1958. USA. Dir: Alfred Hitchcock. With James Stewart and Kim Novak. 128 min.
A police detective-cum-private eye must look into the apparent supernatural possession of a woman while also battling his severe acrophobia, making for one of film’s best psychological thrillers. But don’t take our word for it: Hitchcock’s magnum opus of cinematic obsession just overthrew CITIZEN KANE’s 50-year reign at the top of the Sight & Sound ‘Critic’s Top Ten’ poll.
Tonight, September 8. Goldsmith Family Cinema. 8pm. Free.

If no one shows, it’s because Jimmy Stewart looks old.
