Cinema Arts to Offer 'Vertigo' Program

Film scholar Royal Brown will be on hand Jan. 9 at Cinema Arts Centre for a screening of Vertigo, and an exploration of why it was recently voted the “Greatest Movie of All Time.”

In the latest survey by the British Film Institute on the 50 greatest films ever made, Alfred Hitchcock’s 1958 Vertigo bumped Orson Welles’ Citizen Kane out of first place.

The film will show at 7 p.m.

Brown is a member of the Ph.D. Program in French at the Graduate Center, CUNY. He received a B.A. from Pennsylvania State University and a Ph.D. from Columbia University. He is the author of Overtones and Undertones: Reading Film Music and Focus on Godard.
