VERTIGO

A retired San Francisco detective, burdened by a debilitating fear of heights, is hired by an old friend to follow his wife, who exhibits strange and troubling behavior. As he delves deeper, he becomes dangerously obsessed with her, entangling himself in a web of deceit, murder, and illusion. His fixation leads to a haunting cycle of identity, madness, and lies that blurs the line between reality and obsession.

Craig and guest co-host Derek McCaw discuss film auteurs, toxic masculinity, how films grow beyond their original meanings and the movie “Vertigo” on this week’s Matinee Heroes!
