REAR WINDOW

Box Office opens @ 6:00pm | Doors open @ 7:00 | Curtain rises @ 8:00pm
All Tickets: $5.00
REAR WINDOW (1954) - Wheelchair-bound photographer Jeff Jeffries (James Stewart) passes the time recuperating from a broken leg by peeking through binoculars into the windows of his Greenwich Village apartment neighbors... His girlfriend, Lisa Fremont (Grace Kelly), isn't so sure he should be spying. But then Jeff witnesses a murder - or has he? The many nuances of Stewart's character, the dozen other denizens of the apartment complex, and his opposites-attract love affair with Kelly make Rear Window much more than a simple tale of voyeurism. This is one of Alfred Hitchcock's best films, and arguably one of the best films ever! [more...]
