13. Rear Window (1954)

In episode 13, Sannah and Eric talk about “Rear Window,” one of the best of the best from the Master of Suspense, Alfred Hitchcock. This film came around the beginning of Hitchcock’s great string of films in the 1950s that showed the master in peak form. We talk about the surface-level reading of the film as a perfectly constructed thriller, but also delve into the deeper themes that come out after multiple viewings, including how the director uses the angle of the “voyeur” to show how Jeff puts his own dilemma with Lisa into the lives of those who live around him.
