If you want to watch more with Ray Milland check out Alias Nick Beal (1949) he plays the devil who temps Thomas Mitchell (Uncle Billy It’s A Wonderful Life).

Thanks for reacting guys! I thought you said you'd seen Rear Window that's why I picked Dial M. Anyway, I would strongly suggest seeing it. Having said that I do love this movie (it's in my top 4 Hitchcock movies along with Grace Kelly in To Catch A Thief).

Cristy

Yes, I'm glad you mentioned it, Joe. I love the reverse engineered murder mystery angle, it is so rare. I can think of one more recent movie but don't want to spoil in case you haven't seen it. I also love the use of the one set, yes it's based on a play, but it also feels incredibly claustrophobic and builds the tension. I also love how Grace Kelly's costuming starts bright and then gets darker as the story gets darker.

This movie was originally released in 3D in 1954. I have been lucky enough to see a 3D screening of it at the cinema about 10 years ago and it is spectacular (and why there are some of the low angle shots with lamps for example). Having said that the 2D is just as good, just different. If you get chance, I'd definitely see the 3D version.

Thanks, guys. I really enjoyed this and I'm glad you liked it. I hope we can continue the "two ants criticising the sun" series, lol.

This is such a great movie – the way the plot is constructed is brilliant! (Thank you Cristy!) Isn’t Grace Kelly fantastic? I feel like she gets to show more of her range as an actress here, compared to some other roles. And of course, her wardrobe is phenomenal, as always… I once found a pattern for the black and white dress she wears at the beginning of Rear Window. Even though I have no occasion for such a thing, it was still tempting to make – if only to wear to the grocery store. Music note – Agreed! The incidental music here is really well done. I don’t know if you caught it, but after the murder, while Tony is scurrying to stage things before the police show up, there’s was this brilliant little ‘tick tock’ theme – like time was running out. Really clever!

Funnily enough Grace Kelly had an affair with Ray Milland during the production of the film.

One of Hitchcock's best! You must also see Rear window. Personally I love his older movies like Shadow of a doubt, Lady vanishes and Strangers on a train - the suspence, the mastery and the story - captivates you even without the polished charm or visual flair of his later works. You completely forget you are watching it in black and white

I really enjoyed this! Thank you for a great reaction. That was some plan, and I loved how he kept adapting on the spot when things went wrong. My favourite moment was: "don't go out like that, you'll get arrested"
