series The Vertigo Effect
Directed by Bette Gordon | 1983
With Sandy McLeod, Will Patton, Richard Davidson
Hitchcock’s themes of voyeurism and the gaze are inverted in this fearless exploration of female erotic fantasy. When Midwest transplant Christine (McLeod) takes a job selling tickets at a Times Square porn theater, she’s drawn into a vortex of sexual obsession that leads her to secretly stalk a stranger (Davidson). This bracing feminist noir is a scuzzy transmission from the 80s downtown scene with music by John Lurie and appearances by underground icons like Nan Goldin and Cookie Mueller.
