Classic Mystery Thriller with Class

Rating: 8/10 (19 May 2008)

Such a joy to see this classic movie again, suspense, intrigue, romance, glamor, it has it all! It's worth watching just for Grace Kelly's divine outfits, what has happened to the world that we can't dress like that any more. And that overnight bag with the satin but so modest nightie inside, I want one! I also want my very own James Stewart, the man of action temporarily laid low in the wheelchair with the nurse and girlfriend at his beck and call. Everyone living their life with their windows wide open and James just sitting and soaking it all in. Will Hitchcock movies actually ever age, they seem to be as present as ever, just the dress sense and manners may have changed but the characters remain as true as ever.
