Rear Window

Watching movies is what I do best, but all this time I have never watched anything so thrilling, tense and amazingly significant as an Alfred Hitchcock movie. His greatest film..."Rear Window" is probably Alfred Hitchcock's most perfectly constructed film. It takes place during four days, from Wednesday to Saturday, and the events are filmed from the window of one apartment and mostly through the eyes of one person - the magazine photographer L.B. Jeffries (James Stewart), confined to a wheelchair with his leg in plaster.

One of my goals is to describe to you what I understood and loved about this movie, because Sometimes you see or hear things that make a huge impact to where you think about it hours after it's over. This is the case with Rear Window. What is it that makes Rear Window such a great movie? Let me count the ways.

First of all, is the obvious. Rear Window is by the greatest director who ever lived "Alfred Hitchcock". He was a master of suspense without using profanity, gore, nudity, or even graphic violence. He scared us with only a camera and some lights. The suspense in the film is based on the unquestionable logic of terror. The terror is not in the scene projected on the screen, but in the min


Now about the camera's view in the movie, not only does Hitchcock films this movie from a camera point of view, but also from the eyes of some of the characters. For example, Jeff's, Lisa's and Stella's eyes, as they look through the binoculars and the camera, but its mainly Jeff's. Then as the movie comes to an end when Thorwald attempts to attack Jeff in his own apartment; we would see his vision of what happens when he gets flashed at.

As for how the protagonists found out "whodunit". Lisa had all the lady evidence on what a women would usually do or take with her if ever left for a vacation. Therefore the strongest evidence they had was that, there is no way in hell that Thorwald's wife would leave and not forget to wear her wedding ring, unless her fingers were chopped off!!!...

Now, it doesn't matter how interesting a movie seems if it doesn't have a good story. Let me tell you, Rear Window has many good stories. While some casual viewers will think this is a mystery about whether or not a guy murdered his wife. That may be the central story, but what about all of the others conflicts; like for example will "Miss Lonely hearts" ever find happiness? The same question can be asked to the "Songwriter". How about "Miss Torso"? What is she really like? Will the "Newlyweds" ever open up the shades? Is it possible to keep it up for that long? Then, there's Jeffries. What will become of him and Lisa as a couple? Should he listen to Stella or follow his own stubbornness? As for my opinion about this particular question, I think that these two will live together happily ever after. For she had proven to Jeff that she can change, and that she loves him, and would do anything for him. The way she did it was by believing in him, and in what he saw and thought of what was going on in the other apartment. Therefore if you would remember at the end of the movie, the way he looked at her and cared about her; showed how much he loved her. He realized that she tried hard to fit in, and that he took all that she did into consideration. You can tell from the looks in his eye later in the movie that he accepted her into his life as a wife. This just scratches the surface of the many sub-stories
