A classic of suspense and acting

Rating: 7/10 (22 March 2007)

Rear window is one of the best movies ever made. Jeffries a photographer that broke his leg starts looking out of his window to pass the time, after a while he starts to notice some odd happenings throughout one of his neighbors that lead him to the conclusion of murder. The suspense keeps you on the edge of your seat to the very end constantly wondering what happens next. This is by far one of director Alfred Hitchcocks greatest work and helps justify the saying that he is the master of suspense. The acting is perfect and character creation is flawless. One flaw might be that people nowadays might not enjoy it as much because the film is not as fast paced as the movies today. although it may not stand up to the hype of films now it has a perfect story which the movies nowadays cannot seem to create. I greatly suggest watching rear window it deserves more than it ever got.
