Rear Window quotes

  • L.B. Jefferies: I've seen bickering and family quarrels and mysterious trips at night, and knives and saws and ropes, and now since last evening, not a sign of the wife. How do you explain that?

    Lisa Fremont: Maybe she died.

    L.B. Jefferies: Where's the doctor? Where's the undertaker?

    L.B. Jefferies: [quietly to himself] Come on, Thorwald, answer it. Come on, you're curious. You wonder if it's your girlfriend calling. The one you killed for. Go on, pick it up!

    [Thorwald is seen picking up the phone]

    Lars Thorwald: [voice] Hello?

    L.B. Jefferies: Did you get my note? Well, did you get it Thorwald?

    Lars Thorwald: [voice] Who are you?

    L.B. Jefferies: I'll give you a chance to find out. Meet me in the bar at the Albert Hotel. Do it right away.

    Lars Thorwald: [voice] Why should I?

    L.B. Jefferies: A little business meeting... to settle the estate of your late wife.

    Lars Thorwald: [voice] I... I don't know what you mean.

    L.B. Jefferies: Come on, quit stalling or I'll hang up and call the police. Would you like that?

    Lars Thorwald: [voice] I only have 100 dollars or so.

    L.B. Jefferies: That's a start. I'm at the Albert now. I'll be looking for you.
