39 Steps! The newspaper headline gave it away, but I should have recognized the ticket window from the opening scene.

Yes, well done. I hadn't gotten to the more obvious stills yet. What a gorgeous movie, eh? Here are a couple more (notice how even the plants in Dr. Katz' office are bleached):

hmmm, I wasn't impressed by the visuals. But to each his own.

I wouldn't dream of arguing about visuals on a purely aesthetic plane, because that's a waste of time. Of course you're right, anyone can find beauty according to his or her own experience and inclinations. But the visuals in VV are not merely pretty, they serve the purpose of the movie so well. Here's a riddle for anyone who wants to look deeper - what older German movie does Veronika Voss allude to?

Yeah, the shot with all those glinting lights is pretty unforgettable.
