• Poltergeist, the techniques used to move objects invisibly in the library.
• Blade Runner, with the psychic interrogation that can possibly result in somebody's death

• E.T., Zuul and Vinz kissing, like the girl and Elliot to Gone with the Wind
• Vertigo, and probably the most famous Hitchcockian staircase
