Week 4

    Rear Window is a movie that I have never heard until we watched it in class. During the first 10 minutes of the movie, I thought that I was going to be bored to death, and for the first 10 minutes of the movie I was bored to death. But as the movie went on I, surprisingly, started to get more and more into it until by the end of the movie my eyes were glued to the screen. I cant believe that such an old movie with such a slow pace could keep me interested but it did. 

    I think that the slow pacing of the movie actually helped it in a lot of ways, it made the climax of the movie much more exciting and suspenseful. The whole movie we are left guessing as to weather the man actually did kill his wife or was Jeff just going crazy in his apartment. I know I was switching back and forth on what I believed and didn't believe. There was times where I believed that Jeff was right but at other times it just seemed too crazy to believe that Thorwald would kill his wife like that. Overall I'm glad we watched the movie in class. It was fun and intriguing.
