I saw her Oscar, the dress she wore to the Oscars, her wedding dress, and several dresses she wore in movies.<br /><br />Unfortunately, the black and white number she wears when she first appears in Rear Window was not among the collection, but they did have Jimmy Stewart's wheelchair.<br /><br />Along the walls were several letters written to HRH from Alfred Hitchcock -- he wrote his letters by hand and signed them, "Hitch"!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706937351903658758.post-44264022175285993052009-11-29T18:59:50.399-05:002009-11-29T18:59:50.399-05:00Could not agree more.

I saw this film for the first time when I was in high school. The kid that saw every slasher film around, who thought he had seen it all, who didn't think any "older" film could affect him, was taken to school that day by Alfred Hitchcock. When she's in the apartment and Thorwald comes back I was so tense I literally stood up off the couch. As if I was going to run over there. I have never forgotten that. It was a much needed humbling on my part.Goryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07430152819870754347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706937351903658758.post-74117682333784503482009-11-29T18:25:08.563-05:002009-11-29T18:25:08.563-05:00So true!

I also really love the dialogue between Stewart/Kelly/Ritter/Corey...their bickering and theorizing adds to the intrigue of the plot and also makes them more real to the audience.The Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09871017982169159144noreply@blogger.com
