A movie viewed for this week is an older movie called, “Rear Win­dow.”

“Rear Window” stars James Stewart and Grace Kelly and was made sometime around the 1950’s. It tells the story of Jeff Jef­fries, a photographer who injures his leg and is confined to a wheel­chair in his upstairs apartment in the city that faces his many neigh­bors, for many weeks.

He begins watching his neigh­bors to pass the time, and even­tually believes himself to witness a murder.

Accompanied by his girlfriend Lisa Carol Fremont, who is a wealthy socialite played by Grace Kelly and his sassy sarcastic nurse Stella, they work together to solve the case.

Although this was an older mov­ie, it’s one that should be watched. It moves slowly and its very dia­logue heavy, but this is common for a movie made at this time.

The movie was simple in that it didn’t have a lot of explosions, any use of profanity, half nude to completely nude actors or actress­es, which is so common in today’s movies.

And it didn’t rely on cheesy mo­ments to push it forward.

It was simple, and this simplici­ty spoke volumes.

One might think that this kind of movie would bore one to tears, but the comedy mixed with the ro­mance played so well by the three lead characters, keeps one enter­tained. Until, of course, the cli­matic end when one finds them­selves on the edge of their seat anxiously waiting for the truth and the fate of the characters.

Overall, find some time to watch this movie, it doesn’t disappoint.
