Rear Window

Rear Window rocks!

I watched it last night--a Christmas gift from my friends D. & R.. The movie takes its time setting up the suspense.

The premise is that a man (Jimmy Stewart) has a broken leg and is cooped up in his apartment awaiting recovery. As a way to pass the time, he becomes a bit voyeuristic watching his neighbors. One night he observes some strange goings-on that leads him to believe that a woman has been murdered. He tries to get his friends on his side, but they just think he's imagining things. The way the story is presented, you can't tell if he's imagining things or not.

Definitely worth a watch.
