9/27/10: Rear Window

Rear Window

Basic Plot: As his broken leg heals, wheelchair-bound L.B. Jefferies (James Stewart) becomes absorbed with the parade of life outside his window and soon fixates on a mysterious man whose behavior has Jefferies convinced a murder has taken place. Meanwhile, other windows reveal the daily lives of a dancer, a lonely woman, a composer, a dog and more. Grace Kelly, Thelma Ritter and Wendell Corey co-star in this Alfred Hitchcock-helmed classic.

Rating: 5/5

My Thoughts: This movie was peculiar. I loved twist ending. The acting was superb. There are definitely some similarities between this and Disturbia, though. It's almost the same movie plot. Still, though, I loved it. It starts off a little slow, but even then, the acting and the witty commentary keeps you interested. All in all, one of the best "older" movies I've seen.
