Alphaville : The atmosphere reminds me of…

The atmosphere reminds me of…

...Touch of Evil and Psycho, and the film manages to be also an intersting Sci-Fi B movie.I really loved this film.

ALPHAVILLE - my favorite Godard film (out of approx. 12). I know most people aren't crazy about it, but it fascinates me. Psycho is my #2 all-time; Touch of Evil my #5 all-time.

Well... `Touch of Evil` was a film noir, and `Alphaville` is partly a satire of the film noir genre (a very funny one in my opinion). So the cinematography is probably shot to achieve a similar mood. There are similar surreal inflections in the two films as well.

As for `Psycho`, I can't see much similarity between them. Actually `Psycho` reminds me a little of `Touch Of Evil`, mainly because they both have run down motels with wierd staff running them.
