Thank you all for another wonderful weekly issue of Turni. Where to begin! I think I will start with Vertigo!
Where is it? It is Desert View Tower at The Grand Canyon National Park. Do you get a sense of acrophobia?

I am emotionally attached to Vertigo at many levels. When I first saw Vertigo, my first impression was simple. I just got to go there. That was the only thing that came to me, first. Then I saw all the movies featuring Scotty. Rope, Rear Window, The man who knew too much and Vertigo.... again and again. When I first moved to the United States as a student, within the first 2 months, I saved enough money to take a trip to San Francisco. I been to every single outdoor location featured in the movie on that first trip. Later on, I visited SFO many times, and it remains my most favorite city in this planet. The way Hitchcock features California in general (thinking of Birds) is absolutely fascinating. That Fort Point location from where Madeleine jumps into the icy waters below the Golden Gate bridge, I have visited upward of 12 times... it never gets old. I will talk more about it maybe some other times...
Overall spectacular effort guys!
