      Rear WIndow is a fantastic movie.. nice to see it getting the number 1 spot. Perfect, simple thriller.. always worth a watch on a Sunday afternoon. I'd also add the scene from Psycho where Martin Balsam is savagely murdered. The first time I saw the film it was that scene that terrified me more.. totally unexpected.. class act.
