Critical examination of the special effect of the dolly zoom – first used by Hitchcock in Vertigo – Vertigo Rush becomes a declaration of love to film and the richness of the cinematic language. Used as an extremely effective means of creating shock in numerous films (Jaws, Goodfellas), here the focus of 20 minutes of experimentation is on the sensation of rotating and revolving (Vertigo).
