[QUOTE="witzend, post: 601726, member: 99"] We went to see Rear Window - a family favorite - at a movie theater in PDX that runs Art Movies Foreign Films and revivals. The entire audience [I]gasped out loud[/I] when Grace Kelly was caught in Raymond Burr's apartment. Loved it! Hitch had such a wry sense of humor. While Rear Window is about looking out into the private world of others, Shadow of a Doubt (his own favorite film and one of mine) is about others coming into [I]your[/I] private world. There are several great shots of them walking up the sidewalk to the house with the front door open, with the same people in the house and the same people outside of the house, and how the vantage can be completely changed by what you know about who is inside your home. I've watched a hundred times, at least. I could never watch Stage Fright more than once. It was just too heartbreaking. I [I]love[/I] Sabotage. I think the ending was [I]very[/I] daring, but Hitch said that he went too far for the audience at the time, and they didn't like what built up to the conclusion. [/QUOTE]
