Rear Window (1954) & Chinatown 1974
I enjoyed watching this two movies. Both are claimed to be movie
classics and truly they're. Okay let me give you a short review
about this classics.
1.
Rear Window
is a movie of Alfred Hitchcock. The movie is a story about a guy
with a broken leg who is boredto death and as an escape of his
boredom starts "spying" on his neighbours through the Window. The
guy is an ordinary person with an extraordinary girlfriend and
another old lady who is is responsible for his rehabilitation
procedures. By accident the guy catch a sight of one of his
neighbors acting really weird, putting a saw and a knife in his
brief case. The guy used to went out of his home every evening at a
certain time. His wife is missing for a couple of days. The guy
starts, like an anonymous investigation on the case ... won't tell
you more, if interested in the scenario just check out the
movie.
2. The second one
Chinatown , though a
great movie was a rather odd movie. It's closing is far from the
normal movie's "good guys win" plot. So let me tell you a few words
about the movie. The story progresses around a private investigator
who was hired by a woman to perform surveilance on her Husband as
she has her doubts he is cheating on her. After a short follow-up
the investigator recognizes that the woman's suspicion claimed to
be true. The guy has been into an illegitimate affair with a woman.
A picture of the love affair appears in the Los Angeles local
newspapers and a big scandal arouses. Sooner the investigator is
puzzled when he realized that the woman that hired him is actually
not the guy's wife. Soon after the public outbreak the guy involved
in the affair is find dead near one of the cannals, and it looked
like an accident. However this is far from the truth, the
investigator suspects the guy is murdered and finds that things the
trace about the murder leads to a big conspiracy by a major
business person who tries to manipulate the Los Angeles water
supply. The movie turns a couple of unexpected turn arounds in the
mean time. The killed person's wife happened to have a sister and
be a mother of her sister (in other words her father raped her as a
child and she bore a child ...). The movie is a mix of
psychological drama and a mystery. Just check it out to see it's
unexpected ending. Have a nice watching time.
