Another reason to visit San Fran...

I keep reading about the Hotel Vertigo located in San Francisco's Nob Hill. Clearly a visual ode to the film Vertigo, I love the technicolor set-design vibe. Originally called The Empire Hotel, the building served as Kim Novak's character Judy's residence in the film.




More pics on the hotel's site.

And of course an obligatory pic of Kim Novak...



Speaking of Hitchcock classics, I entirely missed this Vanity Fair spread from last year. Each shot is a reproduction of a Hitchcock movie still with today's little stars and starlets. I do so enjoy, check it out!
