Rear Window : Pet peeve…

Pet peeve…

I could never understand why Stewart felt the need to whisper his conversation to cop Corey while on the phone. He was in his own apartment and surely he didn't suspect Burr was listening in outside the door. Oh well. I hate whispering in movies. It's like white subtitles on a white background.

Re: Pet peeve…

I wondered the same thing. Hitchcock likely wanted to heighten the suspense in the scene.
