Year: 1976
Director: Alfred Hitchcock
Plot: Alfred Hitchcock's final film was adapted from Victor Canning's novel The Rainbird Pattern by Ernest Lehman, who previously wrote the screenplay for Hitchcock's North by Northwest. Barbara Harris plays Blanche, a phony psychic, hired by wealthy Julia Rainbird (Cathleen Nesbitt) to trace the whereabouts of her nephew, who'd been given up for adoption years earlier and who is now heir to a fortune. Blanche's cohort is "investigator" Lumley (Bruce Dern), who is fully prepared to milk the last dollar out of Julia before locating the long-lost nephew. Meanwhile, we are introduced to elegant kidnappers Adamson and Fran (William Devane and Karen Black). The fates of the two couples are inextricably intertwined by the search for the missing heir. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Body: "Rear Window" is a GREAT film! I will not go into detail and spoil it for all of our 'youngsters' here... My favorite Hitchcock movies would be ; 1. "Psycho" 2. "The Birds" 3. "Rear Window" 4. "Dial M..." 5. I can't remember the name but it is that one he did at the end of his career.... the one with Karen Black.... "Family Plot" or something like that...
