You just can't resist watching Hitchcock's Rear Window, just as L.B. Jeffries (James Stewart) can't resist the urge of peeking at his neighbours. What makes this movie so great, besides the witty dialogue and simple yet perfectly executed plot, has to be that unique feeling where you become one with the main character. As a viewer you share and experience everything from Jeffries' perspective which automatically creates a certain suspense. Personally, I found the authenticity of this movie to be quite charming. Rear Window remains an all-time classic for a reason. Good walls make good neighbours, but what happens when you're getting a bit too curious?
