This post is part of the Background to the series
Learning from Alfred Hitchcock
&#8212; for writers, movie makers, and viewers

I think that Vertigo exemplifies all three of the kinds of structures I&#8217;ll eventually be discussing in this series of posts:

3-act structure,
2-act structure, and
chapter structure.

To begin with, it has the 3-act structure I&#8217;ve talked about in Star Wars, Lets [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=williampcoleman.wordpress.com&blog=2093245&post=265&subd=williampcoleman&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

The jade stairs give birth to clear dew;
in the late night it permeates gauze stockings.
Yet she lowers the crystal curtain;
jewel pendants tinkle, and she looks to the autumn moon.

In some house there&#8217;s a jade flute &#8212; sound flies into the dark.
Spring winds disperse it as they arrive, filling Luoyang City 
The night holds a tune &#8212; I can hear &#8220;Break a Willow Twig.&#8221;
Who wouldn&#8217;t be moved, remembering the garden at home?

For me &#8212; his hand scatters once &#8212;

echoing sound emitted by an ice-cold bell.

		<description><![CDATA[Tao Te Ching —
The Classic about Ways And Instances
Lao Tzu
(Translated, with comments, by William P. Coleman)
Chapter 18
After the great way had been forgotten,
there was benevolence and rectitude.

and there was great falseness.
The six relationships fell out of harmony,
and there was love and filial piety. 
Families lost the nation to confusion,
and there were loyal ministers.

Li Bai
701-762 CE
(translated by William P. Coleman)
The northern grasses are just bright green threads;
but on eastern mulberries, green branches hang down.
Days when the lord is first eager to come back &#8212;
those are a wife&#8217;s heartbreak times. 
The wind of desire and I no longer know each other;
what right has he to enter my silk gauze [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=williampcoleman.wordpress.com&blog=2093245&post=258&subd=williampcoleman&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
