Rear Window airs on TCM as part of a Grace Kelly double feature
It's a privilege to be able to see your favorite film in a movie theater. Pretending that the Charles is screening REAR WINDOW (1954) tonight just on my account
Clocked some things this time that I'd never noticed despite seeing this picture a dozen times. Jeff's throwaway line to Doyle about Ham Bone being a pet name for Mrs. Thorwald e.g.
This was me when the Senator played the Robocop directors cut on my birthday
Me last May with LAST YEAR AT MARIENBAD
Lisa is way too good for this asshat. #RearWindow #TCMParty
I watched this movie many years ago, with the asshat that I was dating at the time, and made that same observation.
Must agree. Love this movie, but the moment Jimmy starts going off on how he can never marry because he is such a wandering he-man of ruggedness, you want to slap him. (Tho to be fair, Lisa in this film is too fabulous for *anyone.*)
I agree. However, that's what makes this movie important and impactful. Lisa starts the movie as an incomplete personality, desparate for approval from Jeffries, who's an incapacitated manchild. As the story evolves, Lisa acquires agency, turning into the real hero when she finds the wedding ring.
