Top 100 (#42/48); Thrills (#14); Stars - James Stewart (#3), Grace Kelly (#13); Top Ten - Mystery (#3)
My mom always said if you turn on a light, close the shades or draperies (Not drapes. Never drapes. 'Drape' is a verb. 'Drapery' is a noun.) My husband frequently turns on lights without closing shades or draperies. Which inevitably provokes three questions:
1. Are you saying my mother is wrong?
2. Didn't your mother teach you anything?
3. Haven't you seen Rear Window?
As the answer to number 3 is yes, I can't figure why he'd want the neighbors watching us. What if we're murdering somebody and a neighbor witnesses it? That could only lead to trouble.
Anyways, along with teaching a valuable life lesson (which apparently some people have yet to learn), Rear Window is a great movie. It's thrilling and suspenseful. Grace Kelly is, of course, beautiful. And it has my favorite, Jimmy Stewart.

in defense of my mil, they lived in the country, so maybe there weren't neighbors with binoculars.
