Rear Window

Rear Window is an Alfred Hitchcock film that revolves around the use of the Kuleshov Effect, by alternating between what the character sees with their reaction. Rear Window uses this effect perfectly, making the viewer as if they are the main character in the story. Along with the technical use of the camera, this movie has good acting, led by James Stewart, and has a reeling story. It is an obvious influenc to the 2007 film Disturbia, and is essentially the same film, just substituting certain story aspects. Overall, it is one of my favorite movies seen so far this year and I highly recomend it.
