Show Notes

My friend who is also a photographer Aaron Jacobi (see episode on "The Batman") is back! This week we embark on the first of a two-part-er (expect nothing less for a flawless Hitchcockian summer thriller). We talk about the beloved "Rear Window" (1954) and what it says about voyeurism, how placing a photographer in the foreground informs most of the shots and how it compares to the short story it is based on.

Follow Aaron Jacobi and his photos here.
