Tension
Rear Window 1954 - David Hitchcock
Jimmy Stewart - Jeff
Grace kelly - Lisa
Raymon Burr - Lars Thorwald
Ethel Ritter - Stella
Creating tension
*Jeff's point of view (subjective camera), puts the viewer throughs jeff's position so we feel like what he feels
1) When the killer is returning Jeff knows, we know Lisa doesn't
2) We know and Jeff knows but he is helpless - creating a sense of guilt
3) Call the police - we know the police are coming. Do they get there on time?
4) We don't know what they are saying/slightly concealed in the killer's flat. We also don't know how Lisa is handling it. How far is the killer going to go? - build up of more suspense and tension
5) The killer realise he's being watched, what is he going to do next? adding to the suspense.
