Brilliant, suspenseful and sexy

Rating: 10/10 (28 November 2003)

Rear Window is a suspense movie at it's very best. With Hitchcock directing this story of a photographer, incapacitated by a broken leg ( James Stewart), watching over the activities of his apartment neighbours, who suspects there has been a murder. Added to this is the incredibly beautiful Grace Kelly, playing the fiancee, she adds sophistication and sexiness in a typical understated Hitchcock way. The supporting cast are excellent as well, in particular, Thelma Ritter as Stewart's nurse and Wendall Corey as the doubting detective. The dialogue sparkles and the movies moves effortly through the scenes until the climax. Not to be missed. A masterpiece.
