I feel this is a common trend in a lot of films‚ not just Hitchcock’s. After all‚ the hero wouldn’t be able to be heroic if the police could figure everything out on their own. Overall‚ I found the film to be a fun and enjoyable introduction to Alfred Hitchcock’s films. The characters were engaging‚ the dialogue was fun‚ and the story was interesting. All the pieces of a good film came together - acting‚ writing‚ and directing – with the end result being a classic

At first glance the photograph seems like an average cityscape picture‚ but when dissected there are many aspects that play a role in its impression on others.

After watching Rear Window for a second time I’ve come to realize that not only is Alfred Hitchcock a great director‚ but also a great movie watcher. What I’m trying to say is that he knows exactly what people want to see in certain movies.

Hitchcock knows this feeling all too well‚ making one of the greatest movies of all
