Rear Window

 

            
             To me this was kind of a slow film but it was also a very good film. I guess it's because I am used to the action of the films of my generation, but this was a very good movie in itself. To be honest with you I didn't know what to expect when this movie started, and I was glad to see that it was turning into a mystery. That is my favorite film genre, and the easiest for me personally to stay interested in. I was beginning to notice in the film how it was talking place solely in the apartment of the photographer. Eventually the camera never left his apartment, and I think that speaks a lot for a film because you need to a have a quality film to be able to maintain audience interest in a film that takes place in one location only. I think this speaks volumes to the filmmaking abilities of Alfred Hitchcock and the way he keeps an audience so captivated. It also doesn't hurt to have such an attractive leading actress as Grace Kelly. Let me tell you she was hot, I was surprised because most of the older actresses weren't so attractive but she was absolutely gorgeous. I was also surprised how much skin they were showing in the film. When the dancer who lived across the way was bending over she was showing an awful lot and I thought that was uncommon for that time period but boy was I wrong. It was cool to me how the photographer was spying on his neighbors because to this day we all have those qualities about us. I think we are a curious and nosey society as a whole. He was able to capture a murderer all from his wheelchair in his apartment, all the while starting to convince more and more people into believing him. Another scene I thought was kind of corny was when the murderer was attacking the photographer and was flashing the light in his eyes. All in all this was a great movie, I would recommend it. .
