Looking at just about any Top 100 movies of all time list, you find Rear Window in the list. Directed by Alfred Hitchcock in 1954, it is without question hailed as a classic and one of the greatest movies of all time.
The movie stars James Stewart as L.B Jefferies, a crippled man with a broken leg who is a prisoner to his own confines. Rear Window is a movie that captures the psychological view of a man who is confined to one area for far too long and how the mind begins to play tricks on itself when it has nothing to do. As the days go by, L.B begins watching his fellow neighbors through his window. As his paranoia strengthens throughout the film, L.B becomes convinced that one of his neighbors is a cold blooded murder.
With such stars also including, Grace Kelly as L.B.’s girlfriend Lisa and Wendell Corey as Det. Thomas J. Doyle, Rear Window is a movie built up suspense, something that most drama and horror movies have lost in today’s theaters. I fully recommend going out and borrowing, renting, or buying this movie and become ready to sit on the edge of the couch with your nails digging into the cushions, as you enjoy the classic movie Alfred Hitchcock’s Rear Window.

I really liked your review. It was short and to the point. I agree, I was indeed sitting on the edge of my seat watching the film. Maybe try to explain why you or other people beleive it to be one of the best classics of all time. This will also add more substance to your blog. Great Job!
