"An Idle Mind Is The Devil's Plaything"

Rating: 8/10 (9 April 2020)

A straightforward, well laid out, gripping plot. It is a classic Hitchcock film which ranks up in terms of acting, sound, cinematography and the storyline.
The Good - The movie is a work of art. It emphasizes on the theme of voyeurism. It shows how curiosity can lead to unimaginable things. The plot is straightforward and the movie builds up the suspense right to the end. All the actors and actresses have shown immense devotion to their roles which marks them in the Hall Of Fame.
The Bad - I cannot sense the flaws in the movie. The movie is diamond. It was released at the time cinema was developing. Auteurs like Hitchcock make this movie an impeccable piece of art which thrills the audience in their seats.
Rear Window is a must *watch* however don't be misled by the voyeurism it portrays. As the famous saying goes "Curiosity killed the cat" :)
