Rear Window


A movie review of "the rear window" , by Hitchcock.

Jeff lives on his own in a flat. He has been injured, and has to stay in a wheeling for 2 weeks.
Since he is boring, he always watches the neighbours' lives through the window. He saw somethings puzzling him: A man lives with his sick wife always lying in her bedroom. For several days, Jeff sees that wife's bedroom light is switched off, and the curtains closed.
The husband is packing a suitcase. Jeff thinks that the husband has killed his wife.
But there are others things that keep puzzling Jeff: Several times a night, he leaves home with his suitcase and comes back. He often phones after that.
Jeff sometimes hears shouting at night.
A night, the neighbour's puppy is found dead: it used to make the strange husband angry by digging in his garden, just where he planted flowers. (Strange for a man to plant flowers only in apart of his garden, isn't it?)
Jeff decides with his girlfriend to act: they send a letter to the neighbour where it's written : "What have you done with her?", with an appointment.
The man is worried.
I don't know the end of the film !

I find this film sometimes boring, and the neighbour is suspected of a crime to early.
But there are funny things too, and I like James Stewart (the man acting "Jeff") and Grace Kelly (her girlfriend)

Have you seen this film ? Did you like it?

Jeff lives by himself in an apartment. He has been injured and has to stay in a wheelchair for 2 weeks.

A night, the neighbour's puppy is found dead. It used to make the strange husband angry by digging in his garden, where he had just planted flowers. (Strange for a man to plant flowers only in one part of his garden, isn't it?)
Jeff and his girlfriend decide to act. They send a letter to the neighbour that says, "What have you done with her?" With an appointment (an accusation?).

I find this film sometimes boring, and the neighbour is suspected of a crime too early.
But there are funny things too, and I like James Stewart (the man playing the role of "Jeff") and Grace Kelly (his girlfriend).

Also, responding to your question, I have not seen Rear Window, but, from the way you reviewed it, it sounds like a very interesting film. :)
