Rear Window [Blu-ray] Review: JIMMY, THELMA, GRACE, AND BURR… AN AWESOME FOURSOME FOR SURE!!! - "REAR WINDOW" (1954) This is director Alfred Hitchcock’s classic thriller! Even professional reviewers often fail to realize that a movie's box office success is largely determined by the moviegoer’s subconscious thoughts and feelings rather than objective logical reasons. And promoters of movies and products use subliminal devices to influence consumer response and sales. (For example, I once bought a pair of forest green pants, and later I realized the reason was because they reminded me of the pants worn by the legendary hero Robin Hood in the classic movie!) In Rear Window, the hulk-like Canadian actor Raymond Burr (Perry Mason) portrays the sullen Lars Thorwald. The salesman’s suspected guilt of a hideous murder infuses the movie with an electrifying atmosphere of eerie suspense. And leaving the graphic details of the murder to the imagination of the audience made it infinitely more gruesome. The resulting involuntary chills of terror have been traveling up the spines of moviegoers for decades, and have made this movie a memorable horror classic. The salesman’s ill-fated wife and the unlucky little dog served as props for that purpose. The other inhabitants in the building were mere distractions. But neither the delightful Thelma Ritter nor the universal love for Jimmy Stewart and the Princess of Monaco would be enough to save this film from boredom, were it not for the sinister vibes of Raymond Burr’s malevolent Thorwald. This clearly illustrates how good CASTING can be even more important than good writing, acting, and directing. And if you doubt this, try visualizing Don Knotts as the evil menacing heavy :) And a final bit of trivia…Notice the reference to THOR, the angry Norse god of thunder, hidden in the name of the story’s villain, “Lars Thorwald”. This character’s name added a subliminal aura of the supernatural and alien darkness to the already unsavory salesman.
