Updating Hitchcock.

on February 8, 2008 | 5 Comments

No not the Gus van Sant shot for shot recreation of Psycho, which still perplexes me to this day.

Vanity Fair recently put (current issue maybe?) a photo series of iconic Hitchcock scenes using modern day actors and actresses. Not crappy D list celebrities either, they managed to pull quite a few A listers. I’m not sure why they did this, but am glad they did because they’re great! Someone find that creative director and pat him on the back for me.

Seth Rogan in North by Northwest

Jodi Foster in The Birds

Charlize Theron in Dial M for Murder
