Photojournalist Jeffery broke a leg in an accident, and now he has to spend a boring day in a wheelchair as he travels a lot. In the midsummer of New York, the neighbors around him open their windows day and night. Jeffery, who is free, always likes to observe the neighbors around him through the windows. A glamorous dancer is wearing a bra and shorts and doing housework with beautiful dance steps every day; a composer who lives alone often sits at the piano and writes, and is no exception when doing housework; a childless couple is very hot Lying on the balcony on the third floor to cool off, put the puppy down to play every day; the wife of Mr. Su, a salesman on the second floor, was bedridden for a long time, and two people's corners could be seen from time to time; the single woman on the first floor seemed to be unable to find a partner, Jie Jie Fury called it "Lonely Heart"; a newlywed couple moved into the apartment busy and intimidating, then put down the curtains, and then rarely appeared... Jeffery passed the boring time while watching. Jeffery is actually not lonely. In addition to the nurse Stella who takes care of his sick life patiently every day, there is also a smart and beautiful girlfriend Lisa who loves him fanatically. Stella always complained that he didn't marry this almost perfect girl as soon as possible, and Lisa continued to launch gentle offensives, but Jeffrey, who considered herself loose and free, was a little worried about whether Lisa could get along with herself. The salesman and his wife at the opposite window had another dispute. That night, Jeffery found that Mr. Sue walked out of the house with a big suitcase in the rain three times. The next day, Jeffery found that Mr. Su was wrapping the knife and saw blade. Mrs. Su also disappeared from her bed where she had been ill for a long time. The puppy kept digging in the flower bed downstairs, and everything disturbed Jeffrey. Lisa came, and noticed that Mr. Su was preparing a large box and took out the jewelry and ring from his wife's handbag. From this, the two people came to the conclusion that Mr. Su had killed and divided the body. Jeffery asked an old friend who was a police officer to investigate the matter, but it turned out that Mrs. Su went to recuperate in another place, and the old friend mocked Jeffery and others' nervousness. The puppy was killed, and Jeffrey, Lisa, and Stella became nervous again. In order to find the true evidence, the two ladies decided to look for evidence themselves. Lisa was stuck in the room while searching for evidence at Mr. Su's house. Jeffery called the police in time to save her from being murdered. She signaled to Jeffery that she had found evidence and the salesman knew that she was being monitored. Mr. Su quickly found Jeffery, and Jeffery, who had limited mobility, could only use flashing lights to protect himself in the dark, delaying time. When the two were fighting, the old friend arrived with Lisa and the police, but Jeffery still fell downstairs. It’s daytime again, Miss Lonely Fangxin is enjoying his work in the composer’s house, Mr. Su’s residence is being repainted, and a new puppy appears, and the female dancer falls in love with a short soldier. Newlyweds still often hang curtains. Jeffery was sleeping soundly in a wheelchair with his back to the window, his legs in casts. Lisa sat quietly on the next bed, put down the novel contentedly, and picked up an advertising magazine. This interesting combination of voyeurism and murder is a model of Hitchcock's later work. The murder behind the ordinary and even boring life, with a slightly darker side of humor, ingenious story design, and unexpected and unpredictable ending are deeply imprinted by Hitchcock's works. At the beginning, a large voyeuristic portrayal is laid back and content, without the fierceness of most thrilling films, waiting for thunder in a silent place. The following plot turns ups and downs, making people unable to divert their attention for a moment. All clues are waiting for you to guess, and all your guesses are not certain. Hitchcock is like a cunning old man who is constantly listening to the story. The children are selling off the cakes unhurriedly. From the time Lisa went to the courtyard to search for evidence, the two parties began to have indirect contact, and the audience who had been accustomed to hiding behind the window and peeping with the protagonist had to face the upcoming direct contact. Like Geoffrey far away from the window, we viewers can only watch Lisa adventurously, in distress, and fighting, and can't help a little bit. This paragraph should be one of Hitchcock's most proud paragraphs. Compared with this kind of trepidation, Jeffery's plot design of delaying time with flashing lights is clever, and it's just a trick. When everyone screamed silently, behind the screen, there was Hitchcock's sly, proud and confident smile. Alfred Hitchcock Hitchcock) is a world-recognized film master, known as the "Master of Suspense". Hitchcock was born on August 13, 1899 in an ordinary family running vegetable wholesale in London. In 1920, he entered the film industry. After working through subtitle design, art director, editing, etc., in 1926, he directed his first suspense film "Boarder" (before he also directed two films such as "Happy Garden"), which was well received and established His position in the British film industry. "Assassin's House" in 1934 and "Thirty Nine Nights" in 1935 were very popular in various countries, giving Hitchcock an international reputation. In 1938, Greek's "Balkan Super Express" also successfully sold out and attracted Hollywood's attention. At the beginning of World War II, Hitchcock's family went to the United States and started his work in Hollywood. In 1940, his first Hollywood work "Butterfly Dream" won the Oscar for best work. Then he filmed the spy drama "Overseas Commissioner", the psychological suspense film "The Cliff" and the psychoanalysis film "Doctor Edward". In 1946, the concluding work "Beauty Tactics" was filmed during this period, and it was also the last Hitchcock movie starred by Ingrid Bergman. Her "elopement" with Rossellini gave Hitchcock a big blow. In the early 1950s, Xi continued to experiment with photography techniques. Produced "Telephone Murder" and other works. One of the masterpieces is "Rear Window". Beginning with "Rear Window", in the late 1950s, Xi made high demands on both artistic and entertaining qualities. He produced "Catch a Thief", "People Who Know Too Much", "Vertigo", "Northwest by Northwest" and so on. Series of outstanding works. In 1960, Hitchcock challenged the new horror and shot a "Mentally Ill" that surprised the world. The bizarre subject matter, unexpected story development, and low-budget black and white production make this movie a milestone in Greek film career. Subsequently, "Flock of Birds" in 1963 and "Marnie" in 1964 were different new attempts, creating a new world of horror and suspense movies. At that time, the directors of the French New Wave were more or less influenced by Hitchcock. We can see it when we look at the works of the time, and we can see it more clearly in the interview between Treff and Hitchcock. In 1972, the premiere of "Frenzy" in London allowed the audience to see Hitchcock's heroic wind. This film is smooth and rounded and is a masterpiece of the later period of Greece. On April 29, 1980, Hitchcock passed away, leaving us with 53 films. Chronology of main works 1922 Number
