This proves that Hitchcock was a bad motherfucker in terms of directing..for those not familiar with the story or the filmmaker peep this:

1. That whole set is on a SOUNDSTAGE not outside. Cars driving by and everything takes place indoors.

2. Rearview is a suspense flick and the crux of the movie is looking at ONE window at one couple. The story turns on the question did this guy kill his wife? With the exception of one other scene, involving a small dog getting killed possibly by the same man piquing the interest in his wife's disappearance, all the other windows and people doing stuff is just ATMOSPHERE AND CONTEXT. in other words all the other activity you see buzzing around is superfluous to the plot.

That illustrates just how much attention to detail he paid...that someone some 50 years later pasted all those scenes together and IT MAKES SENSE AND HAS CONTINUITY even tho thats NOT how you see it in the movie.

Some of the crazy stuff happening in the background was some funny/sad stuff going on and it kinda made you WANT to see more of them...especially the couple sneaking and the piano man

All things considered, its possible solely because it was all shot at the same angle. Still took a lot of patience however.

Alfred Hitchcok was a voyeur ( Peeping Tom) - he would watch his actress undress in thier dressing room through two way mirrors and more - he probably spent many hours of his life just watching people in their day to day lives - that being said - he is truly a master at visuals and the use of them to tell a story - he did not believe in a straight line but corners and edges to his tale -

rear_window_xlg.jpg

Release date: August 1, 1954 (USA)
Director: Alfred Hitchcock
Screenplay: John Michael Hayes


All things considered??
Not that impressive??

That movie premiered in 1954 which means it was shot in 1952,53...

Technical Details:
3 Channel Projection
Full Duration: 20 min
Full Resolution: 2400x600px
Projection surface approx.: 10x2 meters
Software: After Effects, Photoshop

the version of Photoshop and After Effects to even be ABLE to do this didn't exist until 2011,12 and the IDEA for that guy to map those scenes together that way occurred some 60 YEARS after Hitchcock filmed it never knowing that one day somebody would be able to visually stitch the scenes together in such a fashion. Because you NEVER see all that activity happening together at any time in one shot like that in the movie.

Whats amazing is there is only a couple of wide or establishing shots in the whole film pretty much every scene is medium close ups and close ups of the apartments and people.

Dude we are LITERALLY looking at a world that screenwriter John Hayes and Alfred Hitchcock saw in their minds but from a proscenium shot they never imagined the film could be seen in and it has 95+% consistency and continuity.

That is a flat out absolutely incredible blend of imagination and technology spanning 60 years from people from two completely different times and eras.

If you read about this type of shit happening in a book..it would be SCIENCE FICTION! :giggle:

and your looking at it going :dunno: meh.. Thats just pure classic young buckism taking shit for granted:smh::smh:

Rear Window is a classic movie. Jacques Tati's movie "Playtime" is similar by giving the viewer so much to look at in the background. You have to watch the movie multiple times to catch all the action and gags.

Hitch was a fucking genius filmmaker. Personal life not so much, but you can't deny his talent. This movie is brilliant because most of the time he shot in exotic, lush locations. The claustrophobic atmosphere he achieved is terrific. I think my favorite might be North by Northwest, but that's another story for another day.

I wasn't knocking the film it's a classic, I was just stating that the composite was possible because the movie was shot from one angle, a perspective from a window.
