You've got to see this movie...

Rating: 9/10 (29 August 2007)

If you like suspense... if you like Alfred Hitchcock... if you like Jimmy Stewart... then you must watch REAR WINDOW. I am a huge classic movie fan. This is by far one of my favorites. It is very entertaining. We have watched it countless times and will again.
You get suspense, a little comedy and Jimmy Stewart at his best. Alfred Hitchcock does such a good job of balancing different levels of entertainment to keep you interested in this movie.
