text: what is your favorite movie ever and why?   vertigo  this movie really affected me... it's emotional impact was so powerful that i was in sort of a daze for the next few days. i'm not kidding! (its not a horror film)  other than its emotional power, it's my fav because:  2) the story = supernatural mystery + shocking twist + dark, brooding, obsessive romance + tragic ending  3) masterly cinematography (especially the trombone shot)  4) haunting and dreamy music, colors, and settings
