  The picnic scene is shot overlooking Monaco.  Grace Kelly's future palace, as Princess Grace, is just beyond the ridge that protrudes into the sea.

  A movie critic whose name I have forgotten appropriately called this film, “Hitchcock champagne.” Spot on!

  Those 1950 color epics were his peak! Soooo enjoyable, especially on the big screen!<br>Next up North by Northwest?<br>Rope?<br><br>One sad fact, the roads Grace was “driving” in the movie were the same kind, if not the same, she was driving when she died. <br>What a woman!!!

  This is a treasured movie for me. &nbsp;I first saw it when I was very young and fell in love with it. &nbsp;I think this film, more than any other of Hitch&apos;s films, has a very broad appeal due to its good nature, snappy dialog, and breathtaking visuals(including Grace Kelly). &nbsp;It was a pleasure to watch your obvious enjoyment, Shandor.

  Hitchcock&apos;s most famous movie may be &quot;Psycho&quot; but that&apos;s more the exception than the rule when it comes to the tone of most of his movies.

  Robie was with Jessie at the gala when she asked him to get her heart pills. &nbsp;He spoke so that police could hear him and associate the costume with him. &nbsp;Then he went up and switched with Hughson. &nbsp;Hughson brought down the pills.

  Princess Grace (Kelly) of Monaco. &nbsp;A true princess inside and out. &nbsp;True elegance and class. &nbsp;A class act actress.

  The dialogue in both Rear Window and TCAT was written by the great John Michael Hayes.<br>He also scripted Hitchcocks The Trouble with Harry.

  The reason why the dialogue in this film and in “Rear Window” is so wonderful is because the screenplays for both of them were written by the same man: John Michael Hayes. Hayes also wrote the scripts for “The Man Who Knew Too Much” (1956 remake) and “The Trouble with Harry.”

  I always thought this was totally about the visuals.

  Such lovely scenery all throughout this one! France, the cars, the houses...GRACE.<br>I&apos;m excited for you to get to Hitchcock&apos;s &apos;Notorious.&apos; That&apos;s one of Cary Grant&apos;s career roles as well as Ingrid Bergman&apos;s. Has a brilliant script by Ben Hecht.<br><br>As for Grace Kelly: &apos;The Country Girl&apos; (1954) won her a Best Actress Oscar, it&apos;s worth watching. Another great film with her in it is &apos;High Noon&apos; the classic Western with Gary Cooper.

  One more Hitchcock movie with Grace Kelly: Dial M For Murder. She really goes through the wringer in that one. It also takes place in pretty much one location, like Rear Window.
