The weather is getting hotter, and photographer L.B. Jefferies (Jimmy Stewart) is stuck in his apartment with a broken leg and nothing to do--that is, nothing to do but spy on his neighbors through their open windows across the way in the apartment complex. There's an attractive and scantily clad dancer, a songwriter, a lonely woman, and the Thorwalds (Raymond Burr and Irene Winston), a bickering couple, among others. But when Mrs. Thorwald disappears, Jefferies is sure that something's wrong. Soon, despite the warnings of his girlfriend, Lisa (Grace Kelly), and his motherly nurse, Stella (Thelma Ritter), Jefferies has out his binoculars and telephoto lens and is studying his neighbor like a bug under glass. However, looking in from the outside might not be as safe as Jefferies assumes. REAR WINDOW is not only a gripping story of murder and suspense, it is a celebrated allegory on the nature of film itself, a story in which the audience watches Jefferies watch the story unfold. The different windows represent the various different stories that are often told on film and also can be seen as representing the coming of television, as Jefferies can watch a multitude of shows from the comfort of his own apartment.

A great, classic movie by Hitchcock. It's for old school movie buffs who still enjoy movies that provoke thought as well as entertain. Hitchcock was one of the great masters. Thumbs up to Overstock.com for having this movie available, and at a great price.

The best with James Stewart and Grace Kelly! Stewart is laid up in his apt with a broken leg ,and what he sees with his binoculars watching a neighbor across the way leads to much suspense with few believing him . A classic Hitchcock thriller!

James Stewart delivers a great performance in this Hitchcock thriller. What seems to be mundane is anything but. You find yourself totally absorbed and not wanting to pause the film for any reason.
