3. Film Analysis: Hitchcock’s Rear Window
Questions to think about (on your own paper):
Consider Hitchcock’s limited use of the camera. Is it a help or a hindrance?
Why has the film been constructed in this way?
Why does this shot cut to the next? (editing)
How does this help build the narrative?
Why is a particular shot framed in a particular way?
How is sound and/or music used?
ADD TO THE BACK OF YOUR SHEET
