"Victorius" is a classic of the 1950s. The film is full of mystery and is one of the most frank and confessional works in Hitchcock's control art. In "Victorius", the themes of male desire peep and female self-gaze exist at the same time. The film uses different visual images to well reflect the internal gender psychological structure mechanism that produces visual pleasure in the film narrative.
"Victorius" replaces reality with fantasy, and vents the depression in the heart by finding love. Technically speaking, the shooting method of zooming and moving the lens to create a sense of vertigo allowed Hitchcock to effectively convey his views to the audience in a visual way. The film persistently analyzes men's fantasies and obsessions with women, so that the audience can unknowingly immerse themselves in it and enjoy the pleasure of sinking. In addition, the theme of fate and the tragic soundtrack have become the most perfect annotations for this movie.
"Victorius" is not only a very outstanding suspense film, but also reached the pinnacle of Hitchcock movies in terms of plot design and mirror editing, and is regarded as one of the greatest films by critics. In addition, Hitchcock also thoroughly used psychoanalysis in "Victorius", which shockedly expressed the struggles of passion and desire among the characters.
Not only is the narrative simple, but the whole movie has only two protagonists, and the clues between the characters are also very clear. However, the film hides a complex core in its seemingly simple form. "Victorius" is completely an open text. Different audiences will get different conclusions from the film, and the same audience will get different opinions with different times of watching the movie. The openness of the film allows the film to be parodyed and deconstructed on multiple levels.
