Open minded and pleased

Rating: 10/10 (13 January 2005)

Just finished watching Rear Window and it was fantastic. The film was refreshing compared to most of the new movies and it was good to watch a film worthy of being included in the saying: "they don't make movies like they used to." I was enormously entertained and it was very suspenseful. It did seem like the ending was going to have a big twist, but I don't think a lack of one really detracted from the movie as a whole. This is really Grace Kelley and James Stewart at some of their finest work. The entire set was so well put together that it was like being in a dream in that it was real, yet it was noticeably different and strange to the viewer.
