Grace Kelly in Dial 'M' for Murder
1954



a haiku:  

I wish I were inside an igloo


can't think visually!

moving into a haiku --

a Hiding Haiku

_______________________________

I was trying to think more visually -- it's hard!

Maybe it would help if I binge-watched my favorite Hitchcock movies:

The Lady Vanishes

Rebecca

Strangers on a Train

Notorious
Shadow of a Doubt
To Catch a Thief

Dial "M" for Murder
Rear Window
North by Northwest

-------------------- Visual.  Visual.  Cinema.  Cinematic.  Not "photographs of people talking."


Then I could binge-watch Woody Allen movies:

Play It Again Sam
Annie Hall
Manhattan

Hannah and Her Sisters

--------------------- (photographs of people kvetching)...


The Lady Vanishes,
Rebecca,
Strangers on a Train,
Notorious, and

Shadow of a Doubt
                                 are in black-and-white, because most movies were still being made in black-and-white in that era (1930s and '40s).

     To Catch a Thief, Dial "M" for Murder, Rear Window, and North by Northwest are in color.  These films were made in the 1950s and color was becoming more prevalent.


     By the time Woody Allen was making movies, in the 1970s, movies were almost all made in color.  Annie Hall, Play It Again Sam, and Hannah and Her Sisters (1986) are in color.  Allen chose to shoot 1979's Manhattan in black and white.

     There! -- Visual thinking.

     (Now I am going into an igloo to write a haiku....)
