Or perhaps you’d like a drink?” After Scottie talks with Madeleine for a bit, he takes the coffee pot and pours some coffee into the teacup, telling her, “Here, you better have some coffee. When Madeleine joins Scottie in the living room, Scottie asks if she would like some coffee and she shakes her head “no.” However, Scottie brings the coffee pot over to Madeleine anyway and says, “Well here, you better have some. Then after taking a phone call, which wakes Madeleine, Scottie gets a teacup and saucer out of the kitchen cabinet, in preparation for when she comes out of the bedroom and joins him. He is seated on the couch, and there is a coffee table in front of him that has a tray with an aluminum coffee pot on it. After tending to the fire, Scottie sips from a tea cup as the camera pans to the left. The drinks go untouched through the scene however, right before the scene ends, Scottie picks up his drink and says, “Oh, I need this.,” and takes a sip from his glass just as the shot fades to black.Īfter this second highball appearance, the next scene with food or drink occurs at Scottie’s apartment after he has rescued Madeleine from the San Francisco Bay. The two men are seated in some sort of lounge or club room and there are a couple of drinks consisting of brown liquor and ice in highball glasses on the side table between their two chairs. When Midge goes to bring Scottie to meet Pop Leibel at the Argosy Book Shop, Scottie chugs what he can of his freshly made drink before departing the apartment.įollowing this scotch and soda moment, the next scene to feature food or drink occurs when Scottie meets with Gavin to brief him on Madeleine. We then see him in the kitchen fixing his drink (most likely a scotch and soda), and can hear the clink of the ice cubes as they hit the highball glass. Scottie asks Midge if she wants a drink and she declines. Vertigo‘s next food or drink moment comes when Scottie fixes himself a drink when he gets to Midge’s (Barbara Bel Geddes) apartment. We can see people eating and drinking at their tables throughout the room however, there are no close up shots of any of the food or drink throughout this scene. Scottie (James Stewart) is seated at the restaurant bar, surveilling Gavin Elster (Tom Helmore) and his wife, Madeleine (Kim Novak), who are seated at a table in the dining room. The film’s very first food or drink moment occurs roughly 17 minutes in during a scene set at Ernie’s, which was an actual restaurant in San Francisco at the time of filming.

While this particular Hitchcock film does not feature food as heavily as some others, it does contain quite a few drink moments, as well as has a few scenes set in a restaurant. Released in 1958, Vertigo is the sixth! film directed by Alfred Hitchcock to be featured here on food & a film ( first, second, third, fourth, fifth), and is widely regarded as one of his very best.
