Rear Window is a nice little crime drama/thriller about an injured man living in NYC during a summer heatwave in the 1950s that thinks he spotted a domestic murder while looking out his window. His girlfriend, an assistant and a detective buddy all, at first, think he's wrong but the evidence mounts. Other stories play out in this slice of life, but James Stewart and Grace Kelly's tale is one of love and the lingering suspicion that something happened in the apartment across from his/theirs. A decent film.

Stella: When I married Miles, we were both a couple of maladjusted misfits. We are still maladjusted misfits, and we have loved every minute of it.
Trivia: Alfred Hitchcock chose Raymond Burr to portray the villainous Lars Thorwald due to his resemblance of David O. Selznick, a producer Hitchcock hated.
Question: What was in the hat box in the garden?
Chosen answer: I think her head was in the hat box after he dug it up from the garden where the dog was digging under the marigolds.
You are correct that it was her head.
