ESSAY ON: Hitchcock/Rear Window & North by Northwest

Number of Pages 4

This research paper: A 4 page research paper that discusses 2 films directed by Alfred Hitchcock. A surface evaluation of the cinematography in Alfred Hitchcock’s classic films Rear Window and North By Northwest would be that there is little commonality between the two films. Rear Window is told entirely from the viewpoint of L.B. “Jeff” Jefferies, a professional photographer who is confined to his New York apartment with a broken leg, whereas North by Northwest follows Roger Thornhill in an action-packed story that takes him across the country. However, a closer examination of the two films reveals that in both movies, Hitchcock uses the camera as his storyteller in many instances, and the elements of cinematography complement the dialogue in revealing characterization and plot devices. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
