93422, BTW, I couldn't watch this film without thinking of Vertigo.

And I was thinking it even before we got to the big lighthouse scene, where the homage became even more blatant.
Many parallels, visually and thematically. No, it's not as good as Vertigo. But clearly Scorsese found that the story had a lot in common.
Though of course, at the end of Vertigo, it turns out it WAS all a game. This is the "What if?" ending, lol.
