Rear Window staring Jimmy Stewart and Grace Kelly was made by one of the greatest filmmakers of all time Alfred Hitchcock. This has to be one of my favorite movies of all time. The whole movie is shot from the point of view of a man looking out is window. Jimmy Stewart has a broken leg, so to pass the time he looks out his window into the apartment courtyard where he lives. There are many interesting characters, doing sometimes strange but innocent daily activities. Then one night he thinks he witnesses a murder. He has no proof, but his beautiful girlfriend played by Grace Kelly become his “Girl Friday,” and she’s on the case.
Here is a movie that is simple, but intense. The romantic back and forth with Grace Kelly and Jimmy Stewart is not only cute, but also very funny. What is really amazing is the how without showing any nudity or sex you still get the sexual tension and chemistry. When I first saw this movie and Grace Kelly showed up, I was blown away. Today’s movie actresses can’t hold a torch to her beauty.
This movie is a thriller, mystery, comedy, and love story all in one. If you’ve never seen it I would recommend you picking it up and giving it a try. You are going to find something very special.
I give this movie an A+.

- Chuck Baker is Right! Well, I am. What I mean is that my friends always joke that I’m always right (or at least I think I am). The thing is I don’t say anything, unless I know I’m right. So it's not that I’m right about everything, but usually when I speak I know what I’m talking about. My dad always said, “Don’t speak unless you know your right.” This blog includes many subjects like religion, politics, business, movies, sports, and more.
