Old Alfreds at it once more with another psychological thriller and starring again is good old reliable James Stewart.This time he plays a photographer who is bound to his apartment after busting up his leg taking action shots at a formula one race.It crashed into him.So he’s wheelchair bound and it’s a massive heat wave and he’s spent the last 6 weeks observing his neighbours through his window.He thinks he’s witnessed a murder and then starts obsessing about it.I’d never seen Rear Window before but I’ve seen some parodies,most notably The Simpsons,so i had the general gist of the plot.It’s really straight forward and i was waiting for the twist at the end but there wasn’t one.I felt robbed by it.That’s all I’m going to say on the matter.The film feels boring because your looking at the same set for the full 100 minutes.
